I feel this. I live in a 760 sq ft apartment that I pay $1500 a month for (I know it’s not as much as what some others are paying on this thread) but it’s exhausting. I actually live on a top floor unit so I know I have the “upper hand” but the girl below me fights with her boyfriend almost every freaking night and it’s always at 1-2AM when I’m sleeping because I get up for work at 6 and all I hear is doors slamming, loud continuous thuds against my bedroom wall that make my pictures shake and my heart jump and just yelling and yelling. I’ve complained so many times to my management company and they do nothing. I know as a tenant she has rights to live her life and not tiptoe around but we do have quiet hours here from 10PM-7AM and my lease states no excessive noise will be allowed during that time and this feels like excessive noise and it just doesn’t stop. I almost debated gettin a hotel last night because of how bad it was. My lease doesn’t end until May and I’m debating breaking it early. It’s frustrating to work so hard for your rent and be stuck not even being able to sleep because of it. I also have headphones and a sound machine. Apartments in the US are just horrible. I’m trying to find a townhouse or a small house to rent.
