Be a Good Neighbor

Don’t be a noisy neighbor!

Let’s face it, when you live in an apartment, you are going to be close to your neighbors. Ideally that means they are close in a good way: people you like, folks who might help you in a pinch, etc. But sometimes close can translate into unwanted noise. Do your neighbors occasionally play the stereo too loud, or are you having to deal with more noise than you should on a regular basis?  The first thing you should think about is whether or not you occasionally might be doing the same thing!  Then, if noise is truly keeping you awake at night or otherwise interfering with your day-to-day activities, try simply letting your neighbors know in a very friendly way about the issue.  You may find they are unaware and are more than happy to modify their habits. If you continue to have issues, contact the office at your apartment community.

Just remember that the best way to have good neighbors is to be one yourself!
