RANTING

I just have to scream! The worst neighbors EVER moved in next door. In an apartment complex full of lousy neighbors, these girls are the WORST! Sure, one weird neighbor knocked on the door in the middle of the night asking for change. And one neighbor constantly borrows things. And one neighbor sits on his porch and drinks himself stupid nightly. I like those neighbors comparatively. Here's the deal: One girl (aged 19) and her one year old daughter signed a lease on the studio apartment that is directly next to mine. There are 3 girls living there (ages 19, 20 and 21) and 2 children. It's a STUDIO... One room with a kitchenette and a bathroom!! You have to pass my apartment to get to their front door, or I have to pass their apartment to get to my back door. We primarily use the back door for coming and going for ease of parking. (There are 17 units in my building and only 8 parking spaces out front... Thus we use the back) Not only do I have to go over and pound on their door every other day (seriously, sometimes every day and occasionally more than once per day) to ask them to turn down the music that is rattling my walls, my pictures, and waking my baby, but they think that their apartment extends to my front door and my back door. They smoke in front of my door, or sitting in my lawn chair in front of my living room window. They have trash and dirty laundry STREWN all over the outside by their back door. So, when my mom comes today she says "hey did you leave this stuff out here!?!" Of course I didn't. I have to clean up their damn cigarette butts from out front 3 times per week. It is so embarrassing and nasty out there that I am charging the batteries in the camera so I can send pictures to the property managers in Coburg. They constantly leave their 6 year old girl out in the front of the building playing alone with no supervision for HOURS while they sleep or whatever with the doors closed during the day. They do not even have windows facing the area she is playing in. (People wonder how little girls get snatched. That's how!) They leave their crap in front of my front door, so when I go out front to check the mail I have to step over their children's toys to get out my front door! They have parties twice per week, where they get roaring drunk (minors) with the kids there. Another neighbor has called the police on them numerous times. They have lived here one month. Our on site manager seems not to care. He says he wants to leave his position because he doesn't want to baby sit, that we should be able to handle our problems ourselves. Of Course he is the idiot that rented to this bunch in the first place. He seems not to care that she is ruining the environment here for all of us, as well as violating the terms of her lease by having so many people there. I have talked to them and talked to them. I am tired of cleaning up after my neighbors, but I refuse to let their inconsiderate behavior turn my home into a slum.
