New here. Three apartments ago: Every time I had people over or had the tv on my neighbors would pound repeatedly on the wall. Even at 2pm, 7pm, normal times for humans to be awake, etc. When I would have people over they would pound on the wall, so we would go outside. Shortly after we would go outside, they would open their windows and yell at us to go back inside. I am not a loud person.

Next apartment after that: We referred to the people above us as The Donkey, due mostly to the constant loud sex noises and, when not having sex, the clomping around in their giant boots. We originally thought there was a hooker living up there due to the amount of sex. Any time we would wake up at night, they would be going at it; 1am, 3am, 4am, etc. Normally I don't really care if you can hear your neighbors from time to time but ALL THE TIME? Nextdoor, a very large p.o.s. who beat his dogs daily. Dogs were not housebroken and were left at home alone for 10 hours a day. The hall smelled like shit all the time. I reported them for animal cruelty when we moved. The best was when they would get into a fight and I could look out the window and watch the girl throw garbage bags full of her clothes into the trunk of her car and speed off. Also, one week when our kitchen light was out we left the blinds in the kitchen open which led to an awesome discovery. It seemed that right out our kitchen window, about 8 feet across the alley we could see right into the living room of the guy next door. He would spend 5-8 hours a day naked, masturbating in front of his computer with the window wide open and the light on. More funny than anything. It just amazed me that someone could spend THAT much time jerkin' it in front of their cpu.

Anyway, the new place: We arrived to see the place during a public showing. We were the first to give our name and deposit to the landlord and tell him we wanted an apt. on the TOP floor, as we are really really sick of having people above us. So, of course, the top floor goes to the large woman with the 5 year old with the drum set and roller skates. Not near as bad as the neighbors. This is a building of small 2-bedroom apartments. The apartment across from us? 8 people in it. 8!!!! They love to yell so that everyone in the apartment can hear them from wherever they are. They've got small children who are fucked. The kids spend quite a lot of time crying and screaming, only to be told by mom: "Shut the fuck up or imma beat your ass!" Their friends sit out in front of the building honking and yelling at them through the windows. I'm sick of living among humans.

Buy a house - preferably in the country, since you can't stand anyone but yourselves.

We do own our house, and so do all but one of our neighbors. The renters are the quietest of everyone, and wouldn't you know it, they're the ones who are moving. Owning your home is no guarantee of good neighbors. There are sucky people at all income levels.

I hear that. Lived in an apartment one time and the resident loser pulled into the parking lot at 2am. Somehow, he'd lost the tires to at least one of his wheels, so he drove in on the rims with sparks flying and the radio blasting. The music and the sound of scraping metal woke me from my sleep. I looked out the window to witness him pull up, get out and with the car door open, relieve himself. He then sat in the car with the music cranked, until I was so f**ing pissed, I started yelling at him from my balcony to turn it down so the people in the other 30 apartments could sleep. Of course, he couldn't hear me over the blasting stereo, so I threw an empty plastic one litre soda bottle at him. That did the trick. The next day, landlord came to my apartment to threaten me with eviction for throwing the plastic bottle from my balcony. That's how screwed up the world is. Wonder more people don't have guns.

I wish you the best. You are not alone in this insanity.

Being in the country doesn't help. We live in the country and have neighbors on both sides (5-acre lots...we can't see them, but boy can we her them) shooting off guns, M-80s, roaring ATVs all over the place.

Mine are out there right now BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM and roaring around mindlessly in their LOUD ATVs.

The country isn't quiet anymore.

Sorry about your neighbors and I think you're right...you can't get away from them.
