I had for 5 years, without a problem till just a few weeks ago, they leave for the winter so i keep a eye on their house. All kinds of people have been parking in there parking spots because the business down the street has been really busy, I let him know and he acted like he didn't know about it, saying i"ll fix things when I get back in a month. Well it's gotten out of hand and it's now a huge deal because the business don't close till 11:00pm and its the employees so they are out rumbling around at close to midnight slamming doors shining light into my house as they back out and making my dog crazy because there are strange people 5 feet from my bedroom windows. Sad part is I found out he's lying and told them it was ok I've asked for things to change nice 3 times , and sure they won't park there when he gets back they go to bed at 9:00pm and have 2 dogs . I'm besides myself of what to do.

I have one on the left side of me and one on the far end of me, they moved here from Florida, I dont really say anything to them, just wave or blow the horn. Mostly keep to ourselves.
-
I am cordial with my neighbor, but I'm not at the point where we are doing things together. I don't want neighbors to ask me for things.
-
We are on rent and we met pretty much everyone around us.... some are really friendly, some are weird and barely look at you...
we try to be nice and cordial to everyone, but then... I don't have to be your friend if you don't want me to.
If you are nice to me, I will be super nice to you... if you ignore me... that's fine too.... but don't come to me the day you need something!!! :))))))))))))
-
I get along really well with my neighbors to the left of me. The others I don't talk to.
-
Oh no, that sounds horrible. Maybe you can speak with the owner of the business? Ask them to remind their employees to be mindful of the residences at night time.
-
With my neighbors, I usually mind my own business. We greet each other “good morning.” If you can afford to move to a quieter place, then maybe it’s a better option than to file a complaint as the last resort with the police if strangers are in your private property. Perhaps you can talk to the owner of the business to arrange for their employees to park elsewhere? :peace:

Moving isn't a possibility and the property is his where they are parked but butted up to mine, they never park where the people are parking unless they have a party and friends park there. They all go to bed as i do around 10:00pm so its over early. As for the business owner he built a business that no one every believed would explode as it has and he's got a huge parking problem so he's pushing it with everyone in the neighborhood. I did tell them if they keep slamming doors at midnight I was calling the cops, I have my fingers crossed as it was a peace full night. It's one of them Micro Brewery deals that the worlds on fire to drink 70,000 types of beer. I really feel bad about my neighbor lying and saying he didn't know, when he in fact said it was ok. Sucks that people have to lie! I really had allot of respect for these people and It;s now gone!! :( :(
-
Been here and no problems. They mostly keep to themselves. Actually we live right between a family. So the kids are constantly going back and forth.
-
i dont see my neighbors that often but whne i do they are very friendly.
-
I only get along with a few the others I'm pretty sure they are stealing stuff from outside my house and crash my car once and did not admit it.
-
I would consult the police department; midnight noise is a public disturbance. But, I see how this can make things more strained within the neighborhood. You can't let people run you over though, something needs to be done. Maybe you can come together with the other neighbors?

We get along pretty good, mostly wave in passing but sometimes we speak for a minute or two. I hope my next neighbors are as friendly as the ones I have now when I upgrade my home in 3 months.
-
I feel really bad for you, I can't figure out why he would lie, that would really hurt and get me mad too. Hopefully when they return things will be ok, lets see how he likes the noise when they return. Until then I guess you have two choices ignore it or call the police. Good luck!
-
I keep to myself when it comes to my neighbors. I like my privacy. I'm friendly. They are friendly. It seems not being to chummy with em'. I've been chummy in the past with people and they think they can come over anytime.. or they expect me to do stuff to help them out all the time. And then it just becomes to much.
-
Privacy is our top priority. I am fortunate enough that I only have one neighbor that lives alone. Very rarely see or hear him now, but when we first moved in he'd always come out to talk to us and we had to complain many times over his dogs tearing up our yard and everything. Now he has a small terrier that he keeps inside and so it is quiet now. We're the type of people that want to be able to go out naked if we so desire. We don't..well not often. It's just that I paid for my property and want to utilize it any way I choose without nosey neighbors or offending anyone. Caution: Drones will be shot down on sight. LOL
-
Not at all.

Thank you so much Nancy, That's just it -when they return all problems with the parking there will end because he has a part time job and has to get up at 5:00 am and will not put up with the noise. It hurts they think so little of me sleeping that they offer up the spots without asking if it would bother me, hate to say it but maybe i'll have to start staying up later and taking drives at 11:00 to the store and be sure I slam doors really loud when I return. These are age 70 plus people you'd think they would have better manners ! I wouldn't do this to even people I dislike.
-
we help each other.
we share things.
it is really refreshing to have such nice people around.
-
We have good neighbors and we help each other out with pet sitting, snow removal, etc. We don't really socialize on a regular basis, but if someone is out working in the yard, we usually stop for a visit.

That's what is so sad its been like your deal for the 5 past years, and this will and has changed the over all good feelings. They borrow all my lawn chairs when having parties, they are people who always are there for the happy hours so I'm thinking that has the power to move mountains or I could be suffering the fact I displayed a Trump Sign In my yard and his wife went crazy on me.
-
I do when I don't get too close, even too much talk. When they ask me to keep my eye out for their house, car, etc. I will tell them I am too scared but will call 911. I tell them that is what I expect from them just call 911 too, and maybe they won't do the return. We are not buddies, they have parties and I don't get invited. I guess my neighbors are copacetic.
-
We are friendly but not too much so
-
I have a good neighbor. Him and his family look out for me. They even take my garbage can to the end of drive way and then bring it back. They are so thoughtful. Hope everyone has a good day and may God bless each of you and keep you safe. :)
-
Don't talk to my neighbors.

I grew up in a neighborhood where everybody knew everybody and most, if not all, were on very friendly terms with each other. There were quite a few kids in the neighborhood relatively close in age and several of the adults banded together to have a rotating New Year's Eve party each year -- all living within walking distance should they imbibe to excess.
I now live in a neighborhood where I know none of my neighbors (nor do I care to) other than just to wave hello. Most of the houses in our area are rentals although there are a few that are owner occupied. The house immediately next door to us had a very nice (and quiet) tenant living there for a brief time, but she bought a house of her own and moved out last fall. I have not yet met the new tenants, but they have two barking dogs (the houses and yards are RIGHT on top of each other) and they park their vehicle right at the very edge of our garage door making it impossible to pull in without doing a wide turn requiring a kick into reverse to avoid hitting the opposite corner of the door opening.
In the past three months, we've gotten 3 or 4 notices in the mail of registered sex offenders living within whatever the required notice proximity is.
It is safe to say that we are trying to save up the money to relocate!
-
I no longer prefer to talk to neighbors because I can't always be welcome on their premises. When I was very young, I thought it was wrong to interact with strangers, even if anyone I knew that knew those strangers had been by my side.
-
We rent to ours. There has been a few problems before but nothing that could not be fixed. Now out last tenants where a nightmare that is all I can say. :BangHead:
-
I live in a business/ home. I have never had problems with neighbors parking in the lot. if we have a winter storm and they need to park off the street, they ask and as long as we don't have anything going on, we let them park there. if we have something coming up, we kindly ask them to move the vehicle. :)
-
Sounds frustrating and annoying. I am pretty sure that other people in the neighborhood also do not like what is going on. Try to talk to the business owner just like someone said or try to talk to other neighbors to see of they could help
-
I have a couple very nice folks, a couple that are kinda creepy, and one just plain scary.
Hope to be out of here this year.
:rose:

One of our neighbors is a very nice older widowed lady. She's super sweet and I go see her when she goes into the nursing home for rehab. which she has done twice in the last year. On the other side is a rental house and we have not been very lucky with the last 2 sets of people that lived there. We have a long narrow lot that runs longways from the back of our house and behind the house next door. For some reason the people who have lived there think they can trash up our lot and use it to drive to the back of their house. Very aggravating!

It really is, and for the other neighbors the people on the other side of him have put out orange cones to keep them from parking on there lot. These people are down south and I guess care less how we fair while they are gone. As far as the business owner, well he has made a gold mine and is about the tightest person I've ever met. I'd go as far as saying him and his wife invented copper wire fighting over a penny!! ::) ::) He's loving his cash cow and really cares less about me because I don't hang out there , I'm not paying 5 Bucks for a tap beer that tastes nasty. Its a very hard deal its a dead end with just 5 houses past this business. I also fear if a fire broke out on our end no truck could get threw!! The big draw is the River and The Eagles so its packed with bird watchers !! Then add boating and fishing and the big river paddle boats!! I might end up moving and thats just sad. And thanks every one for giving me your ideas!!!! and feed back !!
-
For the most part I try to get along with neighbors. I feel like you have to live near them so get along
-
Our neighborhood is pretty quiet until a few months ago. We have new neighbors on one side who can get quite loud sometimes. Thank goodness it is not too often. However when they do its very loud. They do abide by the curfew of 10:00 and turn off the loud music, so that is a good thing.
-
We say hello and friendly to each other. Every once in the while we hold a conversation but are not the close
-
We don't have a neighbor before because we are living in a vacation place. They just here like 4 times a year but when they started renting it out our problem started. They are very noisy and can't even clean the backyard.
-
I am nice to them but don't know them that well, they moved in about a year ago and are a little strange
-
We have terrific neighbors and feel so grateful
-
My next door neighbours sometimes blast the music so loud that it sounds like I'm playing it in my room... :-X Every time I tell them to turn it down they do it though, so that is good
-
we are lucky. we live in a neighborhood that has been family oriented for decades. my mom grew up with the neighbors..her kids (me included) grew up together..my son grew up with their kids and now grandkids are all growing up together so we get along really well.
-
Whenever possible, I will bend over backwards for neighbors. :angel11:
There's nothing worse than having a feud with a neighbor, usually over what is next to nothing at all in the greater scheme of things. :monkey:
:fish:
-
Sad to say my neighbors are bullies. They take your trash bin and claim it as theirs. They know we're not on friendly terms and they'll attempt to get your package from ups and such.
-
No, I don't get along with my neighbors because they are idiots. Enough said.
-
Yes, we do. They are so nice.
-
I get along very well with my neighbors but we have al lived in same are for many years and are all retired
-
I have lived in same apartment complex for 14 years and only talk to one neighbor. I am not a people person and do not like anyone coming for a visit and do not like visiting anyone at their home. My husband feels the same way and I am so glad for it. I have over 1000 friends on facebook and about 200 of them i have met in person. They are people from all over the world, We all used to play on a website that closed last year and we used to meet up once a year in a different state. It was the best website I ever seen in my life. I played on the site for 15 years, cards and board games. The owner closed the site when his health deterioted. We all still keep in touch through facebook. I was on this site for few years and made lot of money than I went idle for too long and lost my account so I started back up at the end of January. I have nothing else to do now since my website shut down LOL
-
yes..my husband grew up here..so he has known most of them just about his entire life..we have had a few that have replaced some older ones..but then its usually the kids moving in their parents houses..like we did..consider most family...their are some friends,but they are new to neighborhood..
-
We do not have any problems so far :)
-
I just got two new neighbors on both sides and I have not met either of them, they have spoken with my husband, but we all keep to ourselfs.
-
I have a house and the one on the left is a rental and a curse, its been bought and sold and always to slumlords, always troubled people living there, the rest of us all get along on the street,just wish some decent family or person buys it and lives there.
-
have neighbors on both sides of me.... the one neighbors we get along with fine,, they will talk to us,,, say hello/buy if we are coming or going. they are very friendly.
the other neighbors we rarely see and they are not very socialable. They may say hi once in a great while if we happen to all be outside but not very often. They have a large Pitt bull dog that I hate so i stay away from that side of the house. ( it seems friendly but I just don't like big dogs ) nothing personal LOL
plus I was having a large tree taken down and a large branch came off and fell on one "her" plants in the yard and she got mad and called the tree company. The plant popped right back up the next day as I watered it during the night ( they rarely watered LOL ) I'm sorry the tree company doesn't work at night while you are at work ugh !!!
its all good :)
-
That is really crappy and I wouldn't know what to suggest. I have never had good neighbors. Ok some might say oh that must be you then but we have always been quiet considerate stick to yourself people but always had neighbors that were jerks or inconsiderate. Now thank goodness I live where I can't see any neighbors which suits me. The only problem is people flying up our rural road that is only 40MPH which I try to ignore because they aren't going to stop.
-
No problems, so far so good.
-
Well yes and no. No huge problems but things like parking on the neighborhood streets when they are not supposed to. Playing loud music is another problem in this neighborhood. If I could afford to, I would just move but I can't.
-
I feel very blessed to have peaceful, respectful neighbors. I live in an apartment complex so that's very important to me. Sometimes I socialize with them but I also know when to leave them alone.
I believe that it's important for me to be a good neighbor if I want to have good neighbors.
:heart:
-
we and the neighbors get along great. although when one couple first moved in their nieces and nephews started hanging around even when the couple was working and some of them were not quite nice about the loud noises with the car radios blaring and then a couple of times some were smoking and what ever using very bad words. the neighbors on theother side called the cops and boy that put a stop to everything. It has been very quite there for ever so long and is real nice now.
-
Some are so obnoxious...that I try to avoid them all the time.
-
Yes we get along with the neighbors. All of us have lived here for years and watch out for each other. We have phone numbers for emergencies and talk outside when we see each other. One guy is the neighborhood watch and keeps us informed on everything that's happening in our court.
