40 Awful Neighbours That Pushed People To Their Limits

Published 2 months ago

Having bad neighbours can ruin the comfort you get from being at home because of the unnecessary stress they cause with their infuriating antics. Perhaps it’s because of inconsiderate behaviours related to bad parking, or maybe it’s the maintainence of the fence between the adjoining lands. Whatever the cause, there are many ways in which a bad neighbour can ruin a homeowner’s whole day, nay, a whole week or even more. Scroll below to view photos of the most outrageous stunts an entitled bad neighbour pulled off.

#2 A Non-Serious Discharge Of Debt

Image source: HerrSeidl, HerrSeidl

Can’t explain how angry I am. Someone destroyed the grave of my cat. My cat Franz passed away after a neighbor kicked him in the stomach. He couldn’t recover from this.

Yesterday I found the grave of my dead cat destroyed in the backyard. I reached out to the Facebook group for my village. Today the mother of the 5-year-old kid who destroyed the grave called me. His son is guilty and wants to apologize. He said it was a mistake and wanted to give me money for the damage. The mother interrupted him and told him the truth. He and his 2 friends destroyed the grave and threw the wood into the small river. This was no mistake. I am really sad and angry someone destroyed the grave without any remorse. But it’s a 5-year-old, I can’t call the police for this. I just wish he told me the truth. I made this cross fully with my hands, handpainted it and wrote his name in old German letters. He doesn’t deserve this.

#3 Neighbors’ Kids Broke The Window In My Brand-New House

The dad threatened me last week saying he’d break my windows if my dog ever poop in his yard (my dog has never done so). Found this, presumably from his kids being little idiots, already caught them once putting a hole in my siding with a rock. Can’t approach parents without potentially being attacked. Filed a police report and they couldn’t care less. $1000 repair.

#5 Mom’s Neighbors Put Up A Million-Watt Crucifix For Christmas

This is not across the street. This is the block over. Best of our picture-taking contest, the power of Christ was too great for our phones to depict this behemoth in all its 20-foot glory.

#6 Neighbors Using The Common Hallway As Storage

#7 I Present To You, Lazy Neighbors. These Neighbors Are Only A Few Steps Away From The Trash Chute And Refuse To Dispose Of Their Trash Properly. They Just Leave Their Trash In The Hallway

Image source: iivynic

This has been going on for months and has only gotten worse these past few weeks. The lovely cleaning ladies have begged me to help them find out who is taking advantage of them, and last night I took the liberty of putting on gloves, going through the trash, and finding mail addressed to them. I found out who the neighbor was and placed all the trash back on their porch. Call me a jerk, but multiple neighbors have placed notes asking them not to leave trash bags outside in the hallway.

#8 Neighbor’s 12-Year-Old Grandkid Decided To Sneak A Joyride. Freaked Out, Hit The Gas, And Crossed Their Lawn And Mine To Hit The Front Of My House

Their car insurance covers all of the damages. Luckily, they were insured. My homeowner’s insurance is handling everything communication-wise with their insurance.

#14 How My Neighbors “Prune” The City Owned Street Trees Outside Their Houses

Image source: irishweather5000

The first three photos show some of my neighbor’s handwork. The last picture shows what the trees are supposed to look like. I don’t understand how multiple people on one street can feel compelled to psychotically destroy trees like this. They don’t even own the trees!

#15 Neighbors Pile Their Trash Up In Front Of The Empty Dumpster

Image source: DatLadyD

It’s mildly infuriating that I have to step over all of that nasty trash to be able to reach the dumpster to throw my garbage away. Usually, I end up just walking to a different dumpster, seems to be just my immediate neighbors who are incapable of actually putting their trash IN the dumpster.

#16 Neighbors Decided To Park In Front Of My Garage, Blocking Me In

#17 My Neighbor Keeps Parking Her Car On Top Of My Garden Area Instead Of Her Driveway Because She’s Too Lazy To Pull Her Trash Cans In

#18 Neighbor Destroyed Our Condo Building. Because He Got Drunk And High And Left A Cigarette Lit Unattended While Sleeping

Image source: SpaceXBeanz

The rest of the condo is destroyed from water, fire, and smoke damage, including all of our belongings and the new Xbox Series X I just bought and saved up for. To make matters worse, on my way to move in that night with my parents after being displaced after the whole ordeal, someone hit my new car.

#19 My Retired Neighbor Is Draining Their Pool Into Our Yard. He Does This Every Year, But He Stuck The Hose Under The Fence This Time. He stopped when I asked, but will probably just do it again tomorrow when I leave for work. The chlorine destroys the grass every year.

#20 Neighbor Across The Street Sits In A Hummer All Night With High Beams Pointed Straight At My House

Image source: MorninJohn

They sit in their hummer from 5 PM to 7 AM, smoking out, and leaving periodically only to return 10 minutes later.

Yes, I’ve asked them to stop.

No, the curtains are not enough to block out the focused sunbeams pointed into my house.

#21 Neighbors Across Are Building New Furniture. Decided To Put The Trash Against My Apartment/Door

We do live on the top floor so I understand not wanting to take the trash down immediately. However, maybe consider that you shouldn’t block my door and the closest staircase to me.

#22 One Of My Neighbors Started Putting A Cone Down To Save “Their” Spot In Our Complex. There Are No Assigned Spots To Any Tenants By The Way

#23 “Troubled” Neighbor Kids And “Just A Pellet Gun”, Says The Cop

#24 Neighbor Left Their Mark On The New Road

This neighbor appears to have gone around the barrier because their need to get home (and, apparently, leave again) was more important than everyone else on the street who has to see this every day going forward.

#25 My Neighbors’ Parking, And No It’s Not Temporary, Has Been Like This For 3 Days

Image source: Rhinop21

We have an HOA but clearly, they don’t care, but they do care if my garbage can is left out 30 seconds after garbage is picked up.

#26 I Asked The Neighbor If He Could Have His Daughter Leave Room On The Sidewalk For My Mom’s Wheelchair And My Kids. This Was His Response

Image source: Hopeful_Regret91194

So my neighbors’ college-aged daughter always parks over the sidewalk causing all the neighborhood kids and walkers to go into the street to get around her SUV (it’s a pretty busy street as it feeds into the rest of the neighborhood). I’ve asked her once and her response was let me ask my parents, but nothing happened. Fast forward about 9 months. My mom who uses a wheelchair (due to advanced MS) is coming to visit so I asked the neighbor if he could possibly have his daughter park in a way that didn’t cover the sidewalk, while she was here visiting. This pic shows his response. Also, as you can see there is plenty of parking not only in the street but in their own driveway!

#29 Neighbor Tried To Saw My Door Handle Off Today Because She Hadn’t Seen My Cat In The Window For 3 Days

Swear to God I thought birds had a legit vendetta against me all winter waking me up at 6 AM with taps on the window. Like, what do these feathered creatures have against me?

#30 Neighbor Throws Dog Food At My Car Cause I’m Parked In Front Of Her Window

It happened twice this week, we live in a building and this woman who lives at the bottom floor throws dog food on my car because I’m parked in front of her window.

She doesn’t even have a car.

#32 The Front Door Of My Apartment Has Been Egged With Hard-Boiled Eggs 3 Times This Month. No Idea Who Is Doing It Or Why

Image source: NotDelnor

I spend most of my time at my girlfriend’s house, so most days I am only at my house for a few hours at most. The eggs always get thrown when I am home and during the day but I’ve never seen it happen so I’m not even sure who is doing it. The 1st time it happened I thought my neighbor just dropped them, but there have been marks from the yolks on my door the last 2 times.

I try my best to be quiet when I’m home because my downstairs neighbor has a young child. I’ve only lived here 2 months and I’ve never even spoken to any of my neighbors so I don’t understand why this is happening.

My only consolation is that they are considerate enough to only use hard-boiled eggs.

#33 Drunk Neighbor Just Drove Through Our Bedroom And Condemned Our Apartment. Landlord Won’t Answer Our Or The Police’s Calls, And Now I Have Nowhere To Live

Still in shock. We just walked out of the bedroom two minutes before it happened. Police and fire departments have been here for hours with no contact from the landlord whatsoever, and now our apartment is uninhabitable.

#36 Downstairs Neighbor Came To My Door At Midnight After Throwing Rocks At My Window And Calling Me Names

Image source: yerbabuddy

Yesterday night, at about 11, I heard what sounded like pebbles hitting my bedroom window, then a male voice screaming names. About 15 minutes later, I heard a knock on my door. I checked the Ring camera to find a guy I didn’t recognize standing there. He said he was my downstairs neighbor and told me to stop stomping so loud, it’s been six months of nonstop noise, and he’s “sick of it”. I moved in three months ago, not six, and I’ve never had a noise complaint in any of my previous apartments. Plus, my job means I’m gone for 12-14 hours a day. I don’t know what he’s hearing, but I don’t think it’s me. Even if it is, throwing pebbles and then coming to my door at midnight is a weird way to handle it. This whole situation is freaking me out.

#37 Neighbor Puts The Camera Faced Towards Our Windows And Yard

After they stole telephone poles from our driveway and sold them on the marketplace we installed a camera for protection (not facing toward their property by the way). But then we find this…

#39 How Do You Stop Trucks From Driving Over This Corner?

Image source: funkyfinz

New construction in the neighborhood. My house is on a cul de sac and trucks cut the corner and drive on my lawn all the time. I have debated getting boulders but they’re really expensive in my area. Also considering some 6×6 posts. One of the issues is the main water line runs along the road (blue line in the picture) and I have a utility easement 10’ from the road. Looking for ideas of what I could potentially do. I was thinking maybe I could argue to the county that the builder is risking potentially damaging the main line from the weight of the trucks driving on it?

Shanilou has always loved reading and learning about the world we live in. While she enjoys fictional books and stories just as much, since childhood she was especially fascinated by encyclopaedias and strangely enough, self-help books. As a kid, she spent most of her time consuming as much knowledge as she could get her hands on and could always be found at the library. Now, she still enjoys finding out about all the amazing things that surround us in our day-to-day lives and is blessed to be able to write about them to share with the whole world as a profession.

Got wisdom to pour?
