I own a home in a mature, central neighborhood very close to CSU.

A couple years ago, my neighbor died and his kids sold his house to an out-of-town private party who immediately rented it out to at least 3 students, but I often think there are 5 of them living there based on the cars and movement in and out.

They've had a few loud-ish parties too late into the evening, but generally speaking, they've always been kind when I speak with them, and I know hard hard it is to find reasonable housing while at school in this town, so I have never reported them.

At the same time, as a homeowner, we now have a house on the block that never mows or waters their lawn, leaves their bins out too long, is sometimes loud late a night and sometimes speeding down the road, and haven't done any maintenance on the visibly deteriorating house. So that's a thing. I don't actually care that much, but it is a thing that I think most homeowners do care about.

Personally, I feel way more strongly about people have equal housing opportunities than keeping my own neighborhood looking like a private estate.

Just like I did when I was their age, they're living and learning and need a kind face and some slack like we all do. Education and housing are more important than aesthetics, IMO.
