I am glad I am not the only one dealing with rude neighbors. I rent a downstairs apartment in New Jersey. I live in a small town and this was the only unit I could find.This apartment has been hell since I moved in. The neighbors upstairs are so rude and annoying.There is a couple and 3-5 men living upstairs in a 3 bedroom apartment.The woman upstairs wears heels/clogs. ALL DAY LONG! Her heels hit the cheap kitchen tiles like she is a model on a runway. She hardly ever leaves the apartment because she doesn't work so I never get a break from this.Foot traffic is unbearable with all those men upstairs and their combat cowboy boots.They drop heavy items continously, they wrestle like little kids, and sometimes sing on a mic with their karaoke machine on full volume.They sweep their porch dirt down to my patio, along with cigarette butts and calling cards.They litter in the hallway and I have experienced ceiling leaks because they drip dry out of the shower onto the floor and also tried to install a refrigerator icemaker.I have complained to the manager and the landlord.It goes in one ear and out the other.They don't want to hear it.The Landlord is useless and does not care about anything but his rent checks.He didn't care that his ceiling tile is ruined from the water leak. He told me he spent thousands of dollars on renovations, but I don't see it. The walls and ceiling are paper thin, the tiles and hardwood floors are cheap materials. This apartment needs serious updating. I am forced to stay here until my lease is up the summer of 2009. I will be giving him two month notice prior to that and I am out of this place. Let someone else deal with noise. NO MORE DOWNSTAIRS APARTMENTS!
