We moved to north of Seattle and ended up buying a home in a lovely neighborhood. We lived on a dead end private drive. Home was only 4 years old and we were the 3rd buyer. All the homes around us were original owners. First day in the house we received a knock at the door and it was the neighbor invited us to their little eclipse party. It was a very keeping up with the Jones neighborhood. They always used to have lavish parties just to impress everyone. All of the lady's in the neighborhood gossiped and all hung out together. They called the previous owners weird and gossiped so much about the neighbors next door who didn't care for the drama. Then we got tired of all the loud parties, so we started not to show up. Then they started to exclude our little 7 year old from playing with all the neighborhood kids. Then came the funny looks. Then we confronted them and it started a big issue in the neighborhood. Then the other neighbor almost hit my kid walking home from the bus stop with her 17 old sister. So I went over and knocked on her door and she wasn't there. Then she came over and said I didn't hit your child and accused me of speeding and said this neighborhood needs speed bumps to slow people like me down.

After that it just got worse and worse. My husband in the snow took our quad out just to zip down the road and let her sit on the back for like 2 mins with full gear on and then they called CPS on us.

They were always drinking, having their kids out at all the parties sometimes till 3 am. We never said one word or called the police. They shined strobe lights through our bedroom window every halloween and Christmas but we were quiet.

Finally we got sick of it and moved under 2 years.... Moved on acerage.

So many of the same events happened to us... Such as my husband confronted her husband and said this needs to stop.

So glad we moved! Feel bad for the 5th owner in a 2013 home.
