Well in the last 6 months my neighborhood has changed, thank God. It's no longer boring and quiet. I now have had the luxury of being entertained with a variety of new music. I can sit on my rear deck and can hear the thrilling sounds of what seems to be a old sound track from a Tarzan movie every night, along with the pungent smell of burning pot..[some one must have Glaucoma] One of the new guys must be real rich he put up a large tent like one for a wedding party and evidently he must be using it to feed the poor..

It seems like all my new friends, were afforded the luxury of taking advantage this great countries generous offer of a new program with no money down and 3% interest, for new home owners that's now being offered. I wish they had that years ago I wouldn't have had to have worked two jobs for 30 years. Some people have all the luck.

It's nice to see that paying $550,000 for a home is no longer a problem. Now you can just get off the plane and have a nice place to live with your extended family of 27.. Now they don't have to worry about where there going to have to park all the school buses during lunch.

I can also go out my front door and be thrilled by the sound of latin music being played by the new neighbor 4 doors down that installs stero systems in old Honda's in his driveway for a living. I should go down and ask him how much to fix the dent in the rear of truck. It seems he also runs a chop shop. So I could get a good deal on parts.

I also wish my kids were still young so I could put them in one of the 8 new day cares that have opened up recently. They also evidently have a new deliver service for poultry. I saw a guy driving by Friday with cages of chickens tied to his roof. I got to get the wife a small axe and call them.There's nothing like free range chicken.

The best thing about the new neighbors is their all gun owners like myself. I was thrilled when I figured out that they also opened up a new 24 hour range some where by my house. It's a lot of fun seating here picking out what calibers their using. It must also have a police training range because I see a lot more of them driving by. I can't wait to join..

Well I'm off to look for the new range it must be open because the police just went by in a big hurry to get there.

You know... I actually got to choose my neighbors a couple of years ago..

You see, it worked like this. Every weekend the Realtors would have open houses, and people would trickle in, or they would wait until the evening, and folks would come to look. There were tons of yuppie, BMW driving, liberal bumper sticker wearing jackholes coming to look. I didn't want that, so me and my buddy, would sit on my roof, with a cooler and when someone would come by that we didn't like, we would walk to the edge of the roof, with beer in hand, and say (in a bad hick accent) "Howdy down there, you gonna buy that there house, we'll be neighbors!" But we would be loud about it. This one couple who's cars' rear end was all but wall papered with Kerry/Edwards stickers, stopped, looked at the driveway, then took one look at us up on the roof, and said "I think we've seen enough" and got back into the car and left.

Now, when people came to look, that appeared that they would match my personality would come by, I would stay off the roof, and kindly say hello if they saw me. The neighbors I have now are all very nice, and I hear the drug dealing, never watch their kids, has a dog that barks all night couple across the street and 2 houses down are leaving... I told my other neighbor that he should do the same!

Bugs, I feel so bad for you. I had the same situation here at my home for the past 15 years. My trouble was Bikers, and their club. They hung out at the neighbors house. Time after time I got into confrontations with them. Police came and went like clockwork, with no result.

Finally, the jerk who owned the house got busted for trying to kill lhis girlfriend, and he had to sell the house for legal fees. This is the really condensed version, leaving out the suicide and attempted suicides, gunshots, loud music, bikes at 3 AM, and the one day, on dry ground, that jerk-O next door drove his snowmobile through the neighbors fence leaving a shape of his head, shoulders and snowmobile, something like a Road Runner cartoon.

He and his friends moved out about a month ago, and a nice 50ish couple with 2 adult kids moved in. They sit in their yard and cooks burgers, put in a pool for their grandkids, and I haven't heard anything louder than the door of their car shut.

I'm so happy. Oh, by the way, did I mention the old neighbor was cooking meth? Real nice to know that danger is gone.

I wish you the very best. I feel your pain!
 
That's great Adam, we were doing the same thing. We had the tow houses, ours and our neighbors all with people that we all like.

Then one of them moved out....

It's a amazing what you can do with a toddler only wearing a diaper...screaming her head off...

When someone normal came over, we had Hadley in a nice outfit and we would sit outside and play...

It's worked so far...
 
I think we all have a story or two to tell ...

I finally got great neighbors on both sides, not that the couple stripper girls living next to me was not fun while it lasted but they rented and would have parties going a little too late for me to appreciate.

The new owners seem really nice and have a 2 year old so I don't have to expect to many crazy nights from them. The people to the left of me are incredible- mowing my lawn, cuts my hedges, snowblows my walkway and driveway and on top of that they are just good people.

On the other hand lets just say I had lived for a couple years on Nichols St in Haverhill. Came home to bloody bodies, had to watch out for needles left in the yard, got a great view of the crack dealers from my bedroom window and even came to know the system they used to escape the cops. One nice gentlemen tried to mug me on my way from my parking lot to my front door.

Soon there after I had my LTC :D and found a house to call my own in a better section of town.
 
Good luck... And remember, one sure fire way to get them to leave is to walk over buck nekkid to introduce yourself.

Or, you could just drink 4 or 5 pots of coffee, and walk over and say really fast. "Do you like guns, I like guns, guns are cool, I like the big bang they make"
 
Keep calling the police with complaints. Just make sure they are valid complaints. It builds up a track record for the future. Everyone in the area should do the same thing. Now the town and the police get pissed off for the comstant complaints that they decide to try and end them. If there are violations, all the better.

The bottom line, with no paper trail, nothing will get done.

Beemer should be up this weekend, so I can come out, too, Sue! And I work more cheaply than Adam does... I prefer brownies or chocolate chip cookies. [wink]


I've been lucky; most of my neighbors have been pretty good ones. Well, there was the Harley rider who lived next door who only ran straight pipes on his bikes, but since he liked to sleep late on Saturdays, too, that really wasn't a problem.

The guy on the other side of my house I referred to as "Saint Don of the Snow Blower"; he used to clear his company's lot with their Cub Cadet and after he was done, he'd ride it back to the neighborhood and do his driveway. Since that took about 2 minutes (small driveway!), he'd then do mine, the guy's across the street, and the driveway of the guy who lived on the other side of him! I tried to thank him once with a bottle of wine and he wouldn't take it - said it was just him trying to be a good neighbor and it was the Christian thing to do. Great guy.

We did the same at my house back about 7 or 8 years ago. If my father didn't like the potential neighbors, he would get me to have friends over with BIG car stereos, and we'd BLAST them while working on the cars. Finally a younger couple (still our current neighbors) came along and they were great. I think we practically begged them to move in after the previous clientel that we dealt with.

Ooooooo oooooooo, I wanna come, too! [smile] [smile] [smile]
 
Bugs I noticed your location says Boston. You wouldn't be referring to Everett by any chance? I use to live there and thank god I got out. People no longer know how to speak English and the day cares you talk about are Everywhere. Also, it's amazing that the 2 family house next to my dads is occuppied by about 50 different people. Seems each batch of people work different shifts so they share the house when they are not working. Plus, they were helping to keep my car light by removing all the aftermarket parts I installed previously. It's great to know they didn't want me weighing my car down with extra parts. This is the exact reason I got out of the city and haven't looked back. Seems like it's time for you to move to the Western part of the state. Not only do we own actual land, all my neighbors speak English and are very friendly. The only hoodlems we get now are Deer and Fox. Nothing a rifle or shotgun can't handle.

I live in Boston itself in a part close to Dedham and Milton.

Last night at 2am and 4am the next door neighbor decided to test out his car alarm by slamming his doors and then the poor guy missed the driveway in the dark and left his car in the middle of the street for the rest of the night.

A couple of months ago his wife pulled into the drive way took a sharp right wiped out the porch,front stairs, fence and went in to the yard on the other side and hit a car in the house next doors driveway totalling both cars..

I had a house in Ashland N.H. and another house in Stuart Fl. and sold them both a couple of years ago. Getting ready to make a big move soon.

If you look at the price of real estate in Ashland N.H.. Your going to be amazed, great little town great real estate prices. It took me 3 days to get my concealed pistol permit there and they charged me 3 dollars at the time.

How many Brazilians are mowing your lawn?

Lol none, but they are moving in all around me. Theres a ton of them on the cape. I dont mind them if they are legal citizens, I respect anyone who has worked hard to become an american citizen. Those who jump the border or come here on a work visa and them disappear I have no use for.
 
I don't worry too much about my neighbors.

When I bult my house, there was nothing across the road.

If I'm not shooting in my back yard I go to my club's range, 1/4 mile away:

Ain't Google Maps fun?

Here is my place and my nearest neighbors. I just wish the pic haddn't been taken the year after we moved in. Our lawn looks a lot better now. The dirt road that goes to the upper right continues for about a 1/4 mile before you hit the main road. I have to go about 6 miles to get to the club.

My neighbors are OK. The one to our left has kids and is a decent family. The one to the right is a recent divorce.
