wow I thought my neighbors were bad but now they seem like saints! I just moved into this awesome place 2 weeks ago. Lots of room, a block and a half from school, and cheap! Then the first night I realized I'm living next door to a band that practises between 11 pm and 3 am... sometimes even later. Someone called the cops on them one night but they're right back to it now. I would move somewhere else but I can't pass up the price and location of this place!

My stories aren't as bad as everyone else's, but here goes. I lived in the city for the first 14 years of my life and we knew pretty much everyone on the entire block. Then we moved to the suburbs. We have lived here for 6 years and STILL do not know our next door neighbors. Our house is right next to the "commonground" and this one man walks 10 feet from his house to let his dog crap all over our yard and the common ground. And this is NOT little yorkie poop. Sometimes I will stand outside just to give him the evil eye and let him know that we know he's the one doing it. It just kills me that he is so lazy. One time my boyfriend had his car parked infront of their house and the lazy man's wife said "if you don't move your car, i'm gonna call the cops!" what the hell. There is also another neighbor that must own a horse, bc certain times of the year, every day there is a big pile of crap RIGHT next to my car, so I'm always stumbling around the humongous turds with a 100 lb. bookbag and purse and lunchbox and laptop, all b/c someone is too lazy to pick up THEIR dogs crap. Grr. About 3.5 years ago, I was going on a first date with a boy and saw him step in a big pile but I was too embarassed to say "hey, you stepped in a pile of crap" so I just kept quiet until later when we were on our way home and it started to really reek in the car, so I was like "Hmm, my shoes are clean, maybe you should check yours" HAHA. Woops.

Here's my psychotic neighbor story. About 6 months after my husband and I were married, we moved into one of my mother's houses. It was a nice neighborhood and there was a lady that lived across the street from us that also owned an empty lot next to her house. She seemed REALLY nice. Came over to meet me...the whole works.

A girl that I went to high school with lived down a few houses and Linda told me to watch out for her because she was schizophrenic or something. Anyway, the woman had issues.

So, a friend came over and parked ON THE STREET in front of the lady's empty lot. He was there to fix my husband's starter on his jeep. Anyway, she is doing her yard work and comes over and asks him to move his vehicle. He told her he wouldn't be long and she's standing there glaring at me. She went home and called the cops.

Cops show up and tell her that it was a public street and that he could park there. He continued to work on the jeep.

I go out to smoke and I saw her, so did the guy, hit his truck with a weed eater! My turn! I called the cops on her. They were ready to file a report against her except the guy didn't want to do it. So, she got off the hook but boy, if looks could kill after that day! :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

I don't really have any bad neighbors per say, thank God. However, there are some people in our cul-de-sac (and WE can't figure out who they are) that don't understand what it means to keep your cat up! It's different when you don't live in garden homes that are RIGHT next to each other and your cat has room to wander. But I am constantly cashing cats off my porch and off our cars. They drive the dogs nuts and crap on my porch! :mad: Grrrr... How would they like it if I brought a big ole pile of Bassett poo to THEIR porch...? Bad thing is, they crap on my neighbor's porch too and she is pregnant. I know this is dangerous. I bought a live animal trap because I figured some of them were strays...no collars and no one we asked (which was everybody) would claim them. There was one that showed up a couple weeks ago that practically (LIVED) at our house. (Was sleeping on our porch...even when we would come home.) I'd never seen this one before. I HONESTLY thought he was lost. He even had the nerve to RUN in our house when we opened the door. Trixie went nuts, the cat hissed and swatted at her and took off through our house like a looney! My husband, being extremely allergic...ended up having to go the next day for allergy injections! :mad: Long story short, we caught it and turned it over to the no-kill cat shelter. A few days later, signs for the cat showed up in the neighborhood that it was missing. :rolleyes: I put up signs under them that said "Check the no-kill shelter and keep your cat up!" They didn't care enough to pay attention to where it was, but loved it enough to put up signs? :confused: The shelter is 15-min away, but they never went to get the cat...they just bought a new kitten! :(

9 cops live on my block... and they're not just any cops... they're Chicago cops. Chicago's finest. They're a bunch of creeps. My next door neighbor is the police chief. He is in his garage every single night until 3AM or so. My apt practically overlooks his garage and I constantly see him trying to look in. He has a bunch of power tools that he is always playing with until the wee hours of the morning.

My favorite neighbor-cop story is on-going. Whenever I get a package, the mailman/fed-ex man/UPS man put it between my screen door and the storm door on the front porch. Neighbor TAKES them and brings them into his house so I have to go over there and get them. He checks me out every single time I see him. I told him that he doesn't have to take my stuff into his house, but he insists so that it doesn't get "stolen". How the hell does he know that I have a package anyway? Is he constantly watching my house? Freaky.

and what do I do? Call the cops??

:lol tears I know! I just wish my neighbor would utilize those "services!"

ok........ wow........ lol
One thing you could do is contact your post office..... because he is taking your mail he is "tampering" with it..... which happens to be a federal crime ;) .. You could also go ABOVE the police chief's head and talk to HIS superior about the ongoing problems you are having with the law enforcement neighbors. AND (i dont know what kind of "checking you out" he does.... ) but this could be stretched to sexual harassment, and as for the 'chief' trying to look in your windows, peeping toms are punishable by law as well :D

Well I am very lucky that I have some wonderful neighbors. But I would have to say the only ones I have gotten upset with is the owners who's dog attacked Gus. After warnings that they had to fix any damages the dog made to get in and out of the yeard. For a while they tied her up. I can hear her crying and crying. So they untied her and filled in the holes she had dug. But they never did fix the gate. She knew how to open and close it to get in and out. A few of us neighbors went to go have a talk with them. We were fearfull that she might attack again. We all have children and a few of us have small dogs and lots of cats. They just didn't take it seriously. They said that she would never attack the kids. Because they had 2 little one at home and she was very loving and sweet towards them. A few day after that, the neighbors found their 3 lbs chi dead in their back yard. It was apparent that he was mauled and there was a big hole that lead to the same dog. But there was no real proof. We all knew who did it but they still would not do anything. Soon after that she got out again and found herself some kids playing with their new puppy. Charged, attacked and killed it. It took 3 attacks. 2 of them that resulted in death till they came and took the dog away. And why,,, they didn't take time to train their pet nor did they do any real repairs to insure she wouldn't get out. And what really sucks is their 4 year old boy adored that darn dog and was so upset when they came to take her away. I couldn't but feel so bad for him. I mean these people are good people and they do have other dogs,,,,, small ones that stay in the house and are loved and spoiled. But poor Dobie never got the training or help she needed so she is the one who had to pay with her life. It's really sad!

Did anyone press charges on them? Were they fined or anything?

We live in a wondrful neighborhood, with great neighborsh. Back a number of years ago our next door neighbors sold their house and moved. The people who bought it were horrible. The mother and father were never home and the two teenaged kids ran amok. We had a garage sale and the girl stole a purse from someone who was at the garagae sale! They used to throw things at the dog we had at the time whenever he was outside. One night I got a call from a young woman at our church who called to tell me they were looking at buying that house. She asked how the neighborhood was and I told her if she bought that house there would be no problems in the neighborhood. Luckily she did buy it and the awful people moved away.

:eek: i live in the country and i have one neighbor next door. a old lady that is so nosy. everytime my door opens you can see her blinds cracked, watching everything we do. i moved out of the city to the country for some privacy and it's worse. she watches my kids and everytime she sees me outside, she's like a little tattle tale over the stupidest things :thumbdown it makes me so mad

In our case they paid for the vet bill ($900) and they also got a fine not sure how much. And as for the other puppy, I dont really know how much that fine was but it was much bigger then the first pluss they lost their pet. We didn't press charges and I don't know if the others did or not.
