How to ignore noisy neighbours?
The story is that i have new neighbour in the apartment upstairs. I've never heard the previous tenants at all but the ones that live up there right now keep throwing items on the floor, move furniture all the time by dragging them on the floor and i hear everything very loud. My boyfriend went up there to ask them to try and be more careful and keep it down and they seemed to understand but the noise didn't stop. They have a small child that's probably doing all the throwing of things but i cannot seem to ignore it. I know that i cannot expect them to change their lifestyle and i try to understand that it is normal to hear some noises in your building but in my case i've jumped in bed, being awaken by those noises from dropping things. Even though they said they'll keep it down they haven't and it is pointless to go there again. Can any of you suggest either a good way to ignore the noise /i've tried with loud music but i don't always want to turn the volume up that much and if i do, the neighbour downstairs is bothered/ or any other way to bother them as much as they bother me so that they can remember that there is an apartment below them? Will appreciate it.
How can I deal with my noisy neighbors?
I live in a shoddily built apartment complex in a major city. The walls are very thin, and I can hear anything and everything that my neighbors across the hall do, even when both of our doors are shut. My neighbor had a couple of kids that are always crying, and when they're not crying they're yelling. I understand that babies cry and all, but I feel as if things have gotten progressively worse over the past couple of months, and went from being permissible to totally intolerable. The mother is always cooing her baby (it is unnecessarily loud). When they leave their apartment, as they're waiting for the elevator in the hallway, the mother and her kids yell right in front of my door. Often, the mother will bring her kids down to the little parking lot, fenced in behind our building, and continue to shout down there as she plays with her kids. My room is right over top of that area, and I can hear everything as if I'm right there. I know I'm complaining a lot here, but I feel like the mother is totally inconsiderate of her neighbors. I have a lot of school work to do most of the time, so I'm usually confined to my room, and the noise has become so exceedingly irritable that I can no longer concentrate on my studies. I feel more and more irascible, and it's actually making me miserable even when I'm not at the apartment. Also, the neighbor on the floor above me suddenly decided that he likes to drum the railing of his balcony for half hour intervals throughout the day, and I can actually feel his banging vibrate through my chair. How can I deal with this problem pragmatically without exacerbating my dilemma? I'm not a confrontational person AT ALL, but I have just about had it, and I'm ready to take the appropriate action. P.S. Though I pay rent, my name is not on the lease; the lease expired while I was living with a couple of other friends in the apartment, but they have since moved out, and I still make payments through them. I don't want to do anything that could potentially jeopardize my living situation, because I'm only going to be living here for five more months, and I don't want to end up paying more than I currently am (if the landlord decided to increase rent or something because the original tenants are no longer living here, it would not be good). Thanks!
Noisy neighbors in dorm?
The residence hall I'm staying in is typically very quiet. However, the people in the room next to me (they're in a triple; I'm in a double) get very noisy at night sometmes. Quiet hours during the week are after 10p.m, and 11p.m on the weekend. Starting around 11p.m-12a.m, the people next door talk very loud and it's very disruptive as I have 8 a.m classes 2 days a week and sometimes only manage to get 5 hours of sleep because of their loud talking, screaming, running in the hallway, etc. This happened to me last night. The people in the triple seem nice but I prefer to discuss the issue with my RA instead. Does this seem like a fair complaint to my RA? I know dorms can get kind of noisy at times, but on a school night, I like to try to get at least 6-7 hours of sleep a night to function and since I do pay tuition to live in a dorm, I think I deserve to sleep more than 5 hours a night and be unnecessarily sleep deprived...

Should I call police on noisy neighbors?
I live in a duplex in the upper level, and I've been complaining to the landlord and property manager about the neighbors who live below me playing their music excessively loud. It seems that either the property manager and landlord have not told them about the complaints, or the neighbors have been told and are ignoring the warnings. I work 8 hours a day from home, and there have been times (I have documented these times and sent letters to my landlord as well as left messages for both the landlord and the property manager) the downstairs neighbors have played their music throughout my entire work day. They play their music so loud, it shakes the floor, and when I am working (even when I'm not working), it makes it hard to concentrate. I shouldn't have to be the one to move, as I've lived in the duplex for 2½ years. These idiots just moved downstairs in March 2009. I am thinking of calling the police on them (reporting a non-emergency situation), as the neighbor(s) downstairs are doing the very same thing right now, and I will be starting work shortly. Should I go ahead and call the police on them today?
Help! Annoying neighbors across the hall...?
Wow you're having problems with your neighbors? So am I, that really stinks. Well you should talk to her and tell her how loud and bothersome they are. If that doesn't stop, I think you could take them to court. That is what my mom said we'd do to stop our neighbors from bothering us. Well You should ask other neighbors if they have problems with them and if they do then everyone should get together and complain to the office. If you go alone they probably won't listen, but with others they might pay more attention to the situation.
Is there anything I can do about noisy upstairs neighbors other than politely asking them to keep it down?
Set your alarm for two AM., then play loud music below where you think there bedroom is. It does not have to be blaring, just a bit loud. Put your headphones on and go back to bed. A timer would be awesome. When they complain, sympathise saying you have trouble sleeping and even their noise seems very loud through the ceiling. Maybe if they are willing, you could both compromise. Remember to keep a straight face and sound concerned. Keep it up until you get results and make sure they don't like that kind of music.
My neighbor’s rooster crows all day long. How can I get him to stop?
For a while I had the sad experience of living inside the city limits in Texas, and directly across the back chain link fence from a rooster. Yes, it's true. And that damned bird would get going at the …. yes, "crack of dawn." This was not conducive to my mental or physical health. I needed my beauty rest! So, one day I just hit my limit, went out the back door to where I could spy the offender's coop, found a small rock on the ground, and hurled it at said enclosure.It struck the side of the tin metal structure with a noticeable "bang", the bird stopped crowing, and I went back inside.Not that it was the most kind action to have taken, but it worked. End of all crowing, except for me to my roommate and friends as I described my triumph over the critter.
Would it be disorderly conduct to shout across the street from inside your front door to tell a noisy neighbor to "shut up"?
What makes you think that would work? If someone did that to you, would you smile and say, “Certainly, sir. I am sorry I bothered you”?Don’t shout across the street, from inside your house or outside. Go to your neighbor’s house, knock on the door, and when he answers, smile and say, “I don’t know if you realize this, but we can hear what’s going on here inside our house. My kids were worried. Is everything all right?”This way, you’re not asking your neighbor to do anything, but you’re giving him a reason to hold it down.
