House Hunting??

Maybe.
It's 2:30am and the nieghbors, the noisy ones, the ones I called police on last weekend, are playing basketball in the street and shouting at the top of their lungs. One of their missed baskets woke me and I'm fit to be tied. I don't think the police ever came last week at my complaint over their loud music. I don't remember it ever stopping until by force of necessity I was finally asleep.
I want to move. They are foul mouthed (in extreme) and loud and rude. I don't mind them filling the street with basketball games during waking hours. At least they aren't out being hoodlums, stealing and what not. But 2:30am and screaming "F***" and "S***" and every other imaginable expletive and calling each other "nigga" just isn't where I want to raise my little girl. If I could I'd move to the country.
Ya'll have a good day now, ya hear?

You have our sympathy. It's not easy to just pick up and move. Best wishes for a good solution.

Fortunately, one of my neighbors feels the same as we do. Since we own our homes, we're frustrated that renters could cause such problems. We've both called the police in the past two weeks. We'll stand our ground a while longer.

Yeah, it's a bad environment. Hope the fact that they are black doesn't color your perception of all blacks. Growing up in a blighted area of Chicago, I knew a lot of transplanted southern white trash. Not a crowd I'd ever want to live next to.

In my line of work, I've had more experience with many different races than most people. There's no prejudice or racism here, just pure frustration that some people don't know the meaning of the word "respect".

Go to sun-sentinel.com and read their front page story about HUD and section 8--might help you move.

Thanks, I'm checking it out now!

Jeremy, I feel your pain. Having lived in Midwest City a long time, I knew
to avoid buying property across tenth street. Perhaps you could rent your
house, cash out and get out of there. There are too many apartments and too
many foreclosures over there. Our neighborhood is quiet and one family and
right now you could find a bargain here.

That's kind of the plan we have in mind. Fortunately, we aren't in a hurry, so we have time to look around and shop for a good deal.How's everyone at your place these days? I'm ashamed we don't go see you guys more often.
