I've been living in my home for 7+ years and I've seen the neighborhood change with some property owners renting out their homes instead of selling them.In that span of time, I have dealt with and encountered a slew of issues from many of the renters - the noise ordinance issue being the biggest complaint, based on many of the culprits blasting loud music from their cars at all hours of the day and night, with no regard for the time of day and who they were disturbing.Yes, I have called, the police - along with other neighbors, but being that I have lived the closest - with the culprits either living beside me, across from me and now adjacent to my bedroom windows as the others have either moved or stopped.The other issues have been lessened, like the previous renters shooting as they have moved, but all of this tension has been building.
