Who's your worst neighbor and what makes them so fucking awful?

Boyfriend and girlfriend lived at the house with their newborn and the girl's nephew. At any given time there were 5-20 people in or around the house. Picture your life from 10-20 years of age if there were a house that you could go to where there was no supervision whatsoever.

The first night that I moved in they shot a mortar firework at my window.

They threatened my family with violence pretty frequently.

I would catch them snooping around my car, looking in the windows. One time when I was getting groceries I turned around and two of them were masked up literally 2 feet away from me. The standoff was brief and they mumbled something and walked off.

They played (shitty) rap music as loud as they could at all hours while they drank, smoked weed, popped pills, talked shit, fought, screamed, served cars, and filmed homemade rap videos. This went on from 11 AM - 3 AM pretty much every single day. I would see them selling drugs, stolen goods, and weapons in front of, beside, and behind our house.

All of the going away (to jail) or coming home (from jail) parties happened there.

They weren't very approachable, in that they had tattoos of the neighborhood on their faces, along with teardrops. However, I did approach them several times and never called the cops on them. Why didn't I call the cops? I thought they would respect me more if I reasoned with them on a personal level. 2/10 times it worked, but it did work.

They did pelt the Comcast truck with empty beer bottles, which was hilarious.

Eventually they moved.

Now I will tell you, from their point of view, why I was a shitty neighbor:

These rich pricks moved into a nice new house next door. They thought they were better than us. They never came out and partied with us or hung out like the other neighbors always had. They had nicer cars and they were afraid whenever we would look at them to see how the inside looked. We would fuck with them like everyone else used to fuck with each other, and the guy was always serious. We were just making do with what we had, and it made me feel like shit to have neighbors like that. Now a bunch of other rich pricks moved in, and my landlord sold our house, so we had to leave.
