The lady next door.

Part of the reason that I'm moving is because of the annoying lady next door.
She constantly yells at her kids, she's home all the time. She treats those kids so bad, it's unreal.
She moved in and basically took over the area, she thinks that she owns the neighborhood.
She has now gotten her neighbor downstairs from her to start blasting his stereo at all hours of the day and night, while she and her boyfriend sit down there drinking and screaming and yelling.
I'll be glad to move, at least I'll be going somewhere where it's quiet for the first time in a long time.

Well you can call the cops on her for disturbing the peace with all that noise, yunno what I mean? But if you're really adamant about moving then move, go somewhere where you'll be happy and enjoy the peace and quietness. If quiet is what you want then by all means find some place that would have that sort of thing for you. You do not really have to put up with it. :) But yes, if those people have recieved a number of complaints from other neighbours then the power of many vs one can work wonders.

I can't tell you how many times the cops have been at her door because of the noise.
There was one Sunday morning, 4:30 and they were still blasting the stereo. The problem was that it was an extremely busy night and they never wound up getting there. We called them a few times that night. Ir really was annoying.

No kidding. That's why I'm so glad to be getting out of here, it's only a few more days thankfully, and I'll be so happy.

Hi Kris,
That is really too bad that you have to move in order to get some peace in your own home. I imagine the guy started blasting his stereo to drown out the noise of her yelling at the kids. Has anyone tried talking to her? Have you already found another place to move to? Moving is such an expense and hassle.

Yes we already have a place and we move next week.
It's a bigger place and it's on a quiet street with few neighbors around, which is very nice.

I live in an apartment complex so quiet it is not! I just try to keep to myself and make the best of it. Moving isn't an option for me at this time. Hope you enjoy your new found peace and quiet!

What about having it settles by a landlord or the building manager? It is too costly to be moving however if you had already pre-planned to move then go on. But you do not have to bear with it for who knows how long. Are there any child protection laws in your country she could be reported if she really treats those kids so badly. Yes you can also contact the police if she gets all boisterous and then she can be evicted in the place and you do not have to move.

Our places are classified as residential above commercial and don't have building managers, just building owners.
The owner of that building couldn't care less about what his tenants do, she even dumped garbage under one of our cars and tried to tell her landlord that we were dumping trash.
The city cited my landlord for it, and he turned around and got it settled that her landlord was busted for it.

ooh. bad neighbor.
can't you call the police and make complaints? wouldn't moving be too bothersome for you? if there's anyone who should get kicked out, it should be your next door neighbor!
and she's hurting her kids?m(_ _)m that's just awful.
i hope things go well for everybody in your neighborhood. i mean, you all cant move to escape from all the noise right?
and if you're really leaving for quieter pastures, i hope you find a great place~!^_^

Sad thing is that others couldn't care less about her doing this.
Although one time when I called the police, they told me another complaint had been filed against her.

It sounds as though the best thing to do would be to move. You can only really complain if the noise is at night and probably on a regular basis.

Actually, up here, as long as it's bothering other people, a complaint can be filed any time during the day.
With the music, there were times that it was vibrating our apartment, which was enough for them to come out to deal with it.

Hi, krist182_2000. I am so sorry about you experiencing this aggravation.
This is just too much of noise to have to deal with. I am surprised that the manager has not put her out for being so noisy. I hope that wherever you move to, it will be some peace and quietness.

She doesn't sound like a very nice person. It's a shame you are moving with such bad feeling towards her.
I have a woman like that who lived next to me in the house I lived in before I moved to this one. She was a horrible person as well, and used to come round knocking on the door and screaming at me whenever we had parties, which weren't very loud and certainly not very often, yet whenever she had parties, she thought it was alright to make lots of noise when she had parties.
Some people are just so selfish.

I feel your pain. I have never liked living in the apartment type dwellings specifically for rowdy and or nosey neighbors. I am glad you are moving away from all of that hectic mess! I currently live in a rural area and our neighbors are not bad. The house we live in is on ten acres of land and we have 2 neighbors near us. One is right beside of us, he is an older retired military gentleman and the most noise he makes is cutting his grass. The other neighbors are a bit louder but there is enough space between us that we don't notice them. Good luck with your new place!

That lady is CRAZYY. She cant be telling other people to not make noise so that she can do the exact same thing in a worse way.
I understand why you are moving from there but honestly she should get a hold of her self and get a wake up call. She needs to start calming down i guess.

I'm sorry to see that you are so uncomfortablw where you live. It is a shame to want to move away because of an annoying neighbor. i can relate to your situation. I have had neighbors who could make life so miserable that all I could think of was getting away from them. The more i would try to make a peaceful co-existence with them, the more misery they tried to send my way. Fortunastely, i live in an area now where i have the best neighbors that I have ever had. Good luck to you in your move. I hope it brings you nicer neighbors to live with.
