So our neighbors have been a growing problem for a few months now. They seem to be a flop house for six or seven people, most of them look high all day. They go out and Rev a Harley at 3am, they burn plastic been our houses in a fire pit, they have a new dog every two weeks because they keep getting out and getting hit by traffic in the busy street we live on, the current two have bit people. I’m not one to care how someone lives, but these folks make the rest of our slum neighborhood look downright utopian.

I’ve tried taking to them, they’re stupidly hostile. I’ve put in complaints with the city, noise complaints with the police, they don’t do anything about it. Does anyone have advice on dealing with this? I’m tired, at my wits end, and my small town tactics aren’t as easy to pull off in a proper city.

    In my experience, bad neighbors don’t really move. If you’re lucky, you can move. But yeah, the qualities that make them bad neighbors often follow them to the rest of their lives, and they’re stuck at their current means and especially in this economy, that’s not a recipe for moving.

      It sounds like it’s a gang. In my experience gangs usually move on after enough people from that house get arrested, killed, or OD.
