Dealing With Noisy Neighbors

If your neighbors are noisy and they haven’t been cooperative when you ask them to turn it down, consider researching your local noise ordinances. Practically every single neighborhood and community will have a noise ordinance and the police have absolutely no problems enforcing them. Generally the rules establish certain “quiet periods” that require people to maintain low decibel levels during certain periods of time, generally when people are sleeping. The best place to check your noise ordinance is to refer to your city attorney’s office (or check the internet). Once you figure out what the laws are, confirm that they are actually breaking them and then call the police.
