This is why you can go over and introduce yourself when you see a new neighbor outside and talk briefly and see if down the road either one of you have anything in common or there is any interest other than just waving hello and goodbye.
I'm all for knowing and saying hello to neighbors, doesn't mean you have to going to each other's houses and socializing.
You don't go into their house right away, find out a large number of people live there who are unseemly and than give them your phone number, which indicates you want contact with them....ugh. Rather you excuse yourself as soon as possible, realize you made a mistake and inform you other half as to what you found and that we need to avoid these people.
And who buys a house and doesn't drive through the area a few times at different times to see what and who is living around you. Ten people in one house is a red flag.
Sounds like these meth heads spend a lot of time hanging outside, how do you miss that when house hunting?
Yes, because that's what DEA does, you call them up an invite them to BBQs so they intimidate the people next door. Same thing with the local law enforcement. |
I see no reason for your personal attacks towards the OP and myself. It's uncalled for.
I lived next door to some druggies who moved into what was a nice area and I invited the police over in the manner I described to raise awareness that local law enforcement was
familiar with the area. After one visit, the home owner put the house on the market and sold out quickly and wonderful neighbors moved into the place. I was told by a neighbor one of the druggies said to him, "This place isn't safe for us anymore, cops all over the place". Some people have no choice and buy only what they can afford. I'm posting so the OP understands they did nothing wrong to cause the problem. Your personal attacks are not helpful on a forum.
