Neighbors from Hell

My question is where's the HOA when you need one? Eh? Eh?



"...a group of people sharing a house in Berkeley, Calif., who have exasperated and intimidated their neighbors with nuisance and even criminal behavior for nearly 40 years...



"Fifteen people with criminal histories list the home as their residence and have produced over 40 "criminally related reports" in the last 18 months, continuing a trend of illicit and disorderly behavior that has endured for decades... since 2009 authorities have visited the home five times in response to reports of fighting, three times to reports of fireworks, and seven times to reports of screaming and yelling. The house has also been the source of three gun- and drug-related arrests since 2009."

If there is no HOA, why haven't the neighbors taken steps on their own?

Hi, Up here we have a law to deal with such neighbor. After repeated warnings/tickets to smarten up, if they don't behave they get evicted and house will be boarded up or demolished. No more problem. We don't put up with garbage like that.

I don't know where "up here" is, but "down here" , there is , ocassionally, a fire which happens when the owner is away and the house is empty. It is a tragedy. We ALL wish it didn't happen.... but nature works in mysterious ways...

That's a good example of why that state leans so far to the left. If they keep leaning that way Kalifornia will just fall into the Pacific. They won't have to wait for an earthquake.
