Nothing specific is mentioned as to how people reacted to Noah, but the scriptures give us a clue:
2 Peter 2:5(KJV) calls Noah a 'preacher of righteousness', so we know he 'preached' to his neighbors about the coming flood. Even so, they did not listen to him, and just continued to live their lives normally. Matthew 24:37-39 tells us that: "...in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark; and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away."
Genesis 6:9(NIV) calls Noah a '...a righteous man, blameless among the people of his time, and he walked faithfully with God." (Genesis 7:1)
Hebrews 11:7(NIV) tells us that "By faith Noah...condemned the world."
So most of the people undoubtedly felt about Noah the way Lot's sons-in-law felt about him when he warned them about the destruction of Sodom (Genesis 19:14), and the way people do today when warned about God's judgement, and looked at him as a fool.(1 Corinthians 2:14, 1 Corinthians 1:18-25)
