In my limited experience I can confirm that at least some kinds of wasps are more than chill even directly near their nests.
Some are not even heavily interested in human food and in multiple occations they landed on my hands, cleaned their legs and flew away again.
In the last few years we had at least three nests within the roof of the house without an issue.
