Everyone has had an undesirable neighbor at some point in time, but how does one deal with 6 undesireable neighbors in an 11 unit complex?

As a fan of banging on walls, leaving letters detailing infarctions of neighborly behavior, blocking people in who do not live here, calling the police and the evil stare-I really have to wonder how far some people are willing to go to get their point across to their 'asshole' neighbors without becoming an 'asshole' themselves.

I was raised to be kind and courteous to my fellow neighbors. Never let the music get too loud, park only in your designated area and make guests park on the street, never enter another person's storage area, keep all common areas neat and clean, report any hazards to the Landlord and be respectful of other people's personal space.

Recently the occupant of Apartment #3, a friend of my room mate and mine, moved to Appleton. Her presence is sorely missed, especially in the past 2 weeks. Our new neighbors are 3 men who work at the El Tequila restaraunt behind our building and they occupy a 1 bedroom apartment. Over the past 5 days they have been blasting their Enrique Inglesies music with bass cranked up around mid day and midnight. I let the first infraction fly, as it was a hot day-all windows were open and they were likely moving items in to their home. After the second day, my boyfriend kindly pounded on the wall to make a point that their music/bass was too loud. I have had to bang on the wall several more times and last night around 1am I had to call the police. Unfortunately they turned their music down just before the police arrived, but there were 3 police cars surrounding my apartment building in anticipation of some possible underage drinking arrests. I can attest to it being a very small apartment and there was no reason the officer needed to knock 3 times before they answered the door.

My message to Apartment #3, disconnect your bass before I disconnect your car's battery.
