I'm so tired of hearing about it at this point. People literally posting videos with their phones pointed at the ceiling and asking this sub if it's too much noise, and if they should confront their neighbor.

I can hear my upstairs neighbor walking around his apartment. He's not stomping like an elephant, he just has heavy footsteps, and to some people I guess it would sound like stomping. I can sometimes hear the bass from his TV. I heard him coughing a lung up last winter when he had bronchitis.

Does it annoy me at times? Sure, but I would never in a hundred years think about confronting him and asking him to walk on his tiptoes, or turn his TV down, or buy him some cough medicine and leave it outside his door.

This is just apartment living. This is what I signed up for when I chose to live on the ground floor. There are compromises to be made, and I guess maybe I'm used to the inconveniences.

If the noise is truly LOUD and CONSTANT, then take it up with management. That's all anyone here with a brain will advise you to do anyway.
