i wrote some scripts that runs airodump ng, then clean the csv, send all beacons with timestamp to a database.
this helped me to collect mac adresses for some time now and allows me to have alerts if neighbours are back from vacation (e.g. using home assistant i get notifications ob androidTV)
i did not go for bluetooth because espresence for homeassistant does that out of the box.

Curious as to why you want to know when your neighbours are back? Or actually the benefit of collecting MAC addresses in general.
Borrowed their pool.
