I have recently gone out into the black for the last 2 weeks. It's my first real excursion beyond 5Kly from the bubble since I got back from DW2. I had been making a list of things I wanted to see/do and now seemed the right time to check these things off my list. Also, just getting away to let the FC congestion hopefully dissipate. Anyway, I am noticing what appears to be a more efficient, i.e. higher number of neutron stars being selected along my plots using the galmap neutron plotter. Has this changed since DW2? It seemed before that neutron stars would be a lot less part of the route planning and now I'm seeing them with much more frequency as well as somewhat frequent double or even triple neutrons in a row. This is not scientific, I haven't done a search on this subject, but am I imagining things?

I haven't explored recently but I used to notice variation in this.
Also if your ship happens to have a higher total range now then it might string more together (e.g. bigger fuel tank or different ship).
Are you maybe a bit above or below the galactic plane? Just some hundred ligthyears can make a huge difference.
Very possibly. I have been going to a number of different places. Tourist beacons, nebulae; I have been keeping a list of places to head out to. I revisited Colonia, Sag A*, explorer’s anchorage. I’m now just about to land on that 11G planet that someone found, I believe during DW2. Wish me luck, I have 2.5 weeks of exploration data on board.
You can get an idea of where the nuetron stars are from here https://edastro.com/mapcharts/neutrons.png.
