Your neighbors are most likely to be permanent residents who own their own homes. They have jobs and families or are retired. The lifestyle of students who are temporary residents of the town can be quite different from the lifestyles of permanent residents. This can cause conflict and tension, especially in neighborhoods with a high concentration of student tenants.
Elderly people can be quite disturbed and frightened by noisy and unruly behavior.
Any parties you host should be self-regulated and held only on weekends. Loud music can bother people as much at 3 p.m. as at 3 a.m. Homeowners usually take pride in keeping up the appearance of their property. Because this is a problem usually associated with parties, please walk around your property the morning after the party, pick up any debris, and dispose of it properly. The list provided above applies to both you and permanent residents.
