Do you live near Bad People?  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 91/100. barbaraeyre (284)   ranked 6,975 out of 26,920 in people 2 years ago

The street on which I live on only has 5 homes. One of the homes is actually a duplex, which is two small one-floor apartments next to each other that share a common wall down the middle.

Unfortunately, the landlord of the duplex likes to rent to some "bad elements" - people who do not work, take and deal in drugs, are disrespectful to us neighbors, and can easily be called "white trash".

You know these people are bad when the town and county police/sheriff know the persons by name and even suggest you have a gun in your home just in case. Hmmmm. Thankfully, the law enforcement said they were going to try and get someone undercover in there (in these people's group of friends that come over daily) and thus hopefully catch these folks in more than just petty possession and such.

The point of this post is to ask, for those who live near bad people, how do you deal with them in your daily lives? My husband and I frequently find ourselves watching these folks out our windows, making sure they are not up to something bad. They like to litter the roads with beer cans and the like, let their dog run loose, talk loudly, be active at all hours of the day and night, etc. Enough to drive your nerves on edge. UGH!

barbaraeyre no I have no idea as I live in this retirement center with about 100 other people but from what I see on our street here the neighbors are all really nice people , law abiding , I have never seen a lot of police cars come around. oddly a lot of these people are vietnamese which will sound odd to you as I am in garden grove Cthumbupalifornia in the US. but we here are in the middle of a settlement called Little Saigon where a whole lot of vietnamese people all settled in this one area. they seem like really nice quiet well mannered people and are all very courteous and pleasant to talk to. We just do not see police cars come into this area except when one of the older people here have a medical emergency and sometimes the police are also called but not very often. Several times the police have been here because a resident has gone missing and the staff are afraid that he or she might have fallen,or got lost or whatever. But there just is not any crime here which I am so thanful for.rolleyeshugs

I'm so glad that your experience with "bad element" people have been limited. Sounds like you are surrounded by good people whom you can turn to for help if need be.

Oh man... This is a terrible experience. I have been pretty fortunate in this matter.

I would suggest you change your place of residence. I know it might sound cowardly etc., but hey we're not on the same terms with these people. I mean, they're criminals. And we're decent ones, right? Why be around such people and ruin our happy lives...? I can imagine it must be very hard for you to live happily with such a crowd in your neighborhood. May such troubles vanish very fast... Good Luck!!


myLot reputation of 91/100. barbaraeyre (284)   ranked 6,975 out of 26,920 in people  2 years ago

I agree about moving - to a certain extend.

First - we were here first. Why should we move?

Second - my husband and I think that we need to make a stand. If we move, then those people feel like they are the dominant ones and they have "won". This is our neighborhood ... they intruded on our peace and tranquility.

Third - we simply don't have the ready funds to move anyhow! LOL

My experience is not serious as yours.After graduate from college,our five classmates rent a apartment in an old district.The bulding is poor at sound insulation.The man and wife who live on upstairs always like to argue at midnight,they beat each other,screech.We are often waken up by their screen.They always agure for more than an hour,during this hour ,We cannot sleep anymore.Our poor five classmates had to go to work the next day.We have tell the man on the updstairs many times,hope they make them noisy a little low,but has no effect.So after sometimes ,we earn a little more,we move to other district.

Ugh! I don't envy that situation you were in. I am glad you were able to move and I hope that was a more peaceful area.

When people are like they, they don't care who hears them while they are fighting. It's sad really.

Terrible!


IMHO the best thing to do is to try not caring (at least in public). Whatever you do just don`t try to resolve the situation yourself or try to reason with them, it will just get worse.

This is a nature of the universe, evrything moment of your would not pleasing, you have to some problems, so like rise and fall in the life, our society also act same. We can't get all good people around us , it definately consist of bad people, Exception are there. In my society two or three families who are very notorious, Compassion and affection too far from their heart.They fight with their neighbour without knowing reason, They dominate lineant people. I hate all these people.

You are very correct in that living near bad people is just a part of living as a human. We live near bad people in order to know how NOT to act as we see how bad people live and don't want to experience that.

well.. few months back, we had something similar.. some of the guys from neighborhood would come and hangout in a godown near my home.. they would just be drinking and smoking but don't know about whether drugs were involved..sometimes, they would stop vehicles and demand money to buy more alcohol.. but then, the people in the neighborhood just made up sort of a club or a committee to enforce some rules and regulations and now we don't get any sort of trouble from these guys..

That is great that your neighborhood came together and got things under control. The police can only do so much since there are so few of them as compared to the total population of the town or city they patrol.

I wish we could get the other houses more involved, but they have their own lives and do not seem to want to step up to the plate and keep their neighborhood safe and peaceful.

i am living the peoples who have very very and even extremely bad activities and characteristics, but we have to adapt these type of things and behaviors some time, because we are compelled to do that, but sometimes we can rejuvenate all the differences, but we accept this, and then suddenly it crosses the limit, and we faced the difficulties and challenges /............. we have avoid them

I live in an apartment complex. And, one of the managers of the complex was letting in some real bad people. They were dealing drugs, making a lot of loud noise, and everything under the sun. They leave us alone, so my partner and I don't do much about it, but its apparently so bad we need a security guard in our complex at night, who apparently can't do much of anything.
