how do you deal with noisy neighbors who fight all night long?

Have you asked them if they would please be quiet? If you do not want to do this--due to fear for your own safety then maybe you should alert the authorities as this could possibly be a physical abuse/domestic violence situation--are there children in the household? Think of the safety of the children if this is the case!

I say let them fight. Then you can take the big bedroom.\n\n\nLong Live Jambi

I've threatened my neighbours many times,, their dog's bark all night long, it probably is just a threat, but what is the dog guilty of, if he is barking all night then maybe your in-laws are at fault, and the landlords might take the neighbours side, you might find yourselves barking up the wrong tree.

I had the same problem last year. Two really hot Marines moved in next door who thought it was socially acceptable to blair their music at 2 on a Tuesday morning. I've adopted the three strikes rule. I give verbal warning two times, just really politely go to their apartment and say, "Hey guys, I'm trying to sleep, I've got class in the morning, could you please turn it down." On the third time, I let them know that if they can't turn it down, I'm going to have to call the police for a noise violation. If that doesn't work (and it hasn't on at least two occassions), I call the police. \n\nIt seems really mean but you pay good money to live in your apartment and there's no reason why you can't expect to have quiet during normal sleeping hours (which I consider to be between 10-6).

Set aside time to communicate with him, and do so without judgement or accusations. When you discuss a difficult subject, stick to facts and the way his behavior affects you rather than attacking him. For example, if he comes home late, don't say, "You're so rude and inconsiderate! You're always doing this to me!"\n\nInstead, say, "You came home two hours late. (fact) When you are late, it worries me because I think something might have happened to you (how his behavior affects you)." That helps keep the conversation neutral so you can resolve the issue instead of starting a fight by putting him on the defensive.\n\nDuring other conversations, each of you should take a turn talking while the other listens without interrupting. Then, the listener should summarize what they thought they heard and give the speaker a chance to correct their interpretation.\n\nUsing technique like this will definitely help you to be open and honest.\n\nDr. Barb Nefer, http://www.bnlifeskills.com

Ask them politely to stop. Nothing else sit back and power thru it.

Use earplugs or just cover up your head and continue to sleep. There  is always a way to get around noise when you are sleeping. If that dont work go to bed early so that it wont bother u so much when your borther gets up and gets ready for school

you don't want to contact the mayor, you need to contact the police.  If they can't do anything, then call the Zoning Enforcement Officer and ask if there is a noise ordinance on the books.  If not, write the mayor or the town council and stress how important it is for a town to have a noise ordinance.  Go to town meetings to push your cause during oral petitions.  and see what you can do.

Your downstairs neighbors are carrying out a campaign of harassment against you.\n\nThis is ILLEGAL, and you can get help.\n\nFirst, do the best you can to document everything they do - take pictures of any damage they cause, keep whatever written records you can of any kind of false legal complaint they file against you, tape any threats they make to you verbally or by phone and keep a "harassment diary" - take a notebook and every time they harass you, either you or your boyfriend write down, IN DETAIL every thing they do.\n\nMeanwhile, contact your local police department, ask to speak to a detective, and file a formal complaint. Then go to your county courthouse (with your boyfriend, if possible) and file for an Order of Protection.\n\nOnce this Order of Protection is granted, if your neighbors continue harassing you, you can call the police on them - they will be in contempt of court every time they harass you, and they CAN AND WILL GET LOCKED UP.\n\nSitting in a holding cell has a way of getting people's undivided attention - hopefully, when the cops slap the handcuffs on them, they'll calm the hell down, and stop bothering you and your boyfriend.\n\nGood luck!

Honestly you could ask them to keep their kid quiet. But in all reality if the kid is in his own yard and before 10 pm there is nothing that you can do. Try moving the infants crib to the other side of the house, or maybe moving the nap time from when you know the other kid will be screaming................

NEVER stop fighting! Take a form of defence like Karate for a class cuz it teaches u all types of defence moves. Bite. Kick punch YELLLLL as loud as u can. Don't walk where there aren't any people or houses alone at night.

If I understand, it is your tenants that are making the noise?  I think partially it is your responsibility to let your tenants know this type of behavior will not be tolerated. I don't know that you can really make an impact now though. In the future, maybe put something in the lease about noise violations.  The neighbors need to call the police though and register a complaint.  If the law comes several times, the tenants will begin to get the idea.  Good luck with that.

When your neighbors say something just challenge the other man to a contest to see who can make their wives/girlfriends scream the loudest!!!

People who live in apartment buildings need to be courteous to their neighbors.  That means no loud noise after 9:00 at night.  \n\nPeople have to get up early to go to work and need quiet in the evenings.

Don't yell. Don't raise your voice. Speak very quietly in simple language. They will have to stop to listen and hear you. They know empty threats, don't threaten what you will not follow through on. i.e. "If you don't behave you'll have to stay in your room for a week." They KNOW that isn't going to happen, but for 2 hours...maybe.\n  You can't steer a car by honking the horn, and neither can you guide children by yelling.
