*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
We've all had to live with a neighbor we didn't particularly care for, at some point or another. Whether you don't like the color they painted their house or don't agree with how they parent their kids, most of these tensions arise from simple lifestyle differences. What about the habits that could actually turn out to be truly dangerous for your neighborhood? Here are the top six bad habits that probably occur around your neighborhood and may be putting your security in jeopardy:
6. Partying loudly. A neighbor that likes to call the cops on a raging party can be a real downer, but sometimes it is necessary to do this if you want to protect your own safety. A loud party means lots off strangers milling about the neighborhood. This provides opportunity for a criminal to stand around outside at all hours of the night and not look out of place.
5. Letting the dogs bark. In a neighborhood where dogs are constantly barking at all hours of the day and night, people learn to ignore them, much like car alarms blaring for no reason. The sound of an actual guard dog sounding the alarm would be drowned out by this noise.
4. An unkempt yard. In some communities, there are regulations concerning the appearance of the lawn. This might seem overbearing, but the rules are there for good reason. A messy yard signals to criminals that the owner doesn't care a lot about their home, and has probably not protected it with security alarms and other features meant to stop a break-in.
3. Being careless about possessions. It's only natural to become comfortable in the place that you live, but you might end up letting your guard down too far. Do your neighbors often start their car early on cold mornings to let it heat up, or leave the front door open on a warm day? What about leaving kids' bikes in the carport, or tools in an unlocked shed? Doing so invites opportunistic thieves to take advantage of this carelessness.
2. Letting �kids be kids.� We've all known parents who overlook their children's misdeeds. Some of these are between the kids and the parents, but others affect the safety of the neighborhood. If the teens living next door to you run with a rough crowd, hang out and party late into the evening, or are vandalizing the neighborhood out of boredom, they are putting your neighborhood at risk.
1. Keeping to yourself. It might seem like the polite thing to do, but minding your own business can actually make you miss the signs of criminal behavior on your own street. Neighbors tend to mind their own business too much - and won't take notice of suspicious noises or other problems. Follow up on suspicious noises or behaviors by contacting the police, and hope that your neighbors will return the favor. Forming a neighborhood watch group is an excellent way to commit to putting an end to the habit of ignoring your neighbors.
