14 Types of Annoying Neighbors You Would Never Want to Have

We always want someone whom we can trust and can always count on in times of need. But what happens when some annoying bunch of neighbors move next door? Let us see some types of annoying neighbors whom you need to watch out for.

Man is a social animal, therefore, we like having people around us. We all have neighbors, be it a house you are living in, apartment, or even a dormitory. Some are so good that you feel lucky to have such wonderful people around you, while others are simply annoying.

When it comes to neighbors, you seek people who you can rely on, and can depend upon at any given time of the day; someone you can trust if you leave your extra pair of house keys with them, someone who can keep a watch on your place when you're out of town, etc.

However, sometimes, it can be frustrating, living next to some crazy and pesky neighbors. Some of their habits can make your life really uncomfortable. And unfortunately, you can't hide or run away from them, unless you are living in a rented apartment.

Here's a list of the different kinds of neighbors you may be living next to, or you may want to avoid.

Annoying Neighbors that You Should Avoid

This neighbor is a real watchdog for the neighborhood, always peeking out from behind curtains or fences, keeping tabs on everyone's activities like a vigilant FBI agent.

They will know everything about everyone, more than they know about themselves. This is usually the person who has a LOT of free time in his hands. The next time you bump into them, they're sure to ask you about the stuff they overheard, which you know you DID NOT tell them at all.

Friendly neighbors are considered as a blessing anytime, but overly friendly neighbors can seem annoying after some time. Although they might not mean or do any harm to you, their super sweet nature can drive you crazy at times.

Showering you with gifts for no reason, stopping by every time they see you outside, and being overly concerned with your health and life can surely make you want to run 10 miles away from them. They love to tell you each and everything that goes on in their lives.

This neighbor thrives on being controlling and bothersome, firmly believing it's their way or no way at all, enforcing their rules on everyone nearby without hesitation.

They will do anything they want, but will have a problem if anybody else comes in their way. They will repeatedly pick fights with you for the smallest of things, and also make you do their work.

This neighbor is a familiar annoyance we've all encountered. They're the ones with noisy kids and a penchant for loud conversations, blaring music, drilling sounds, and frequent house parties.

We can handle a little noise every now and then, but when it starts happening at odd hours like 2 in the morning, you feel like calling the cops for some relief and peace.

This neighbor is a non-stop party animal. If you're into the same vibe, you won't mind their constant stream of visitors and loud music, turning every night into a Saturday night.

To make it worse, is their bad taste of songs, which they play on repeat for three hours straight, and them trying to be the next popular singer in line. This is mostly a problem for those who stay in apartments, especially if there are paper-thin walls in between.

This neighbor is everywhere. They're fine for a chat until they dive into gossip about other neighbors' love lives or personal affairs, making conversations uncomfortable.

This gossiper spreads news faster than the speed of light, with little or no truth at all. They also pretend to be your best friend, but are on the lookout for their next news. May be they can try their hands at some news channel !

These neighbors usually love to fight out loud, so much so that all the people nearby know what the cause of their fights are.

They just don't seem to understand the meaning of privacy, and that personal family matters should only be kept with themselves and are not meant to be shared with the whole world.

The people trying to find their 'voice' fall in this category, who most of the time are new learners or wannabes who simply follow the crowd. There's nothing more torturous than listening to bad singing or a song being played over and over again.

It's a good thing that they want to improve, but that means more torture for you. You come back home tired after a long day at work, thinking that you'll get a good night's sleep, and there goes the first beat of their drums at 11:00 in the night.

This neighbor, at first, may seem very kind and harmless. But one fine day, you'll see them at your doorstep, and they'll innocently ask you for something. And you being a good neighbor, give them whatever they need.

This makes them think that they can borrow anything and everything that they want, and many times will take away stuff without even asking. The worse part arrives when they return the stuff damaged, or don't return things at all.

These neighbors are reclusive. Their closed blinds and eerie homes, surrounded by overgrown trees and weeds, add to the haunted vibe. You might only catch glimpses of them peering through a gap in their curtains.

Once in a blue moon, when you see them outside and greet them, they will never respond to you, but instead give you a silent, cold stare. You hardly see anybody coming or going from their place.

These neighbors will leave you puzzled with their mood swings. One minute, they're pleasant, sharing laughs, but the next, an unexpected evil side emerges, catching you off guard.

You never really come to know how to react, because you can't judge whether they will be happy or become rude and abusive.

These neighbors always show up uninvited, eager for a drink or snack, oblivious to your busy schedule or lack of socializing mood.

They stay in for hours, and sometimes even the whole day. All you can do is to pretend that you are out and not answer the door at all.

Avoid this neighbor. Their clutter and garbage will ruin the area and lower property values for everyone.

All the junk from their homes piles on their yards, with it slowly coming over to yours too. You'll find rodents and rotten food inside their homes.

Imagine yourself waking up next to a python one day. Yep, now you know what we are talking about here. Most of us love animals, but when the neighbor's dog keeps barking till five in the morning, you know something needs to be done really soon.

Neighbors having cats are equally annoying, with these little furballs purring every few minutes. Some neighbors even keep dangerous animals as pets, and let them loose, causing trouble in the whole of the neighborhood.

And this is exactly what an apartment scene may look like if you happen to be living in one, surrounded by weird neighbors!

So, these were some common set of neighbors that can be seen in every neighborhood. Hope you end up with some good ones, but in case you do end up with some annoying ones, know the right way of dealing with them, so that you won't face any problems in the future.
