How to keep the neighbors from call the cops on our party?

Tell them about the party ahead of time. Heck, even invite them! They may not go, but perhaps it'll make them feel more friendly toward you.

At least if they know there's going to be some noise, they can prepare for it.

However, speaking as someone who lives in a loud neighborhood, please do try to be considerate. I've never understood how people can have parties where the music is so loud. How can they talk? Anyway, keep the volume down as much as you can, and don't turn up the bass. It's those deep thumping tones that really carry the farthest (think ghetto blaster, if that's not too outdated a term).

Ask your guests to be considerate when they're outside. If your neighbor knows that you're trying to keep a lid on things, they may be more forgiving.

One other idea, which may not be too wacky - turn your music up as loud as you think you'll play it. Then go to the neighbors and see if they find it disturbing.

First of all, I hope everyone is over the legal drinking age or else there is no way to stop someone from calling the police. I would go to the neighbors before Friday (take them a few apples or a little Halloween candy for a bribe if you are so inclined) and tell them you're having the party. Tell them you will do everything you can to keep the noise to a minimum. If they do have a problem with anyone, to call and let you know and you will take care of it. Hopefully, then, they will be prepared that you are having the party, you have bribed them a little to be more neighborly and you have opened a line of communication that they know you will be cooperative if there is a problem. (Sometimes intoxicated guests can get a little rowdy, after all.)

Hope you have lots of fun.

Get REAL - You can't expect the neighbors to let you make so much noise that they can't hear their own TV just so you can have a party with yelling, screaming, loud talk, loud music, and expect them to just ignore you! What would you think if you were asleep and at 2am a neighbor starts blowing his car horn - non stop!? Yet you want to do the same thing. Tell the neighbors your going to have a loud party and by 11:30 the noise will be shut off - PERIOD! They will put up with it till then (11 would be better)

Of course you could invite the neighbors to the left, right, and back to come over to the party! Then they can't complain.

You didn't like it when the neighbor came over but you expect the neighbor to just put up with your noise!

Remember - you can do anything you want on your property - AS LONG AS IT DOESN'T CROSS YOUR PROPERTY LINES!!! Noise crosses the lines.

Invite the neighbors over. A friend of mine always had a large 4th of July party and invited the neighbors over. Even though they never came, if the cops were ever called my friend said that they invited everyone and made it out to be a neighborhood event. The cops never did anything. With that said, maybe you should consider keeping it down to a smaller party or shut it off at a reasonable hour.

Report them to the complex managers if possible. If not, think about moving. I've been there and it's awful. I used to have neighbors blasting music so loud that my walls vibrated. I told their landlord but this only stopped it a little. I did move. Good luck and call the police if you must. Hope they aren't some idiots though that will try to get even for calling the cops on them.

1. Invite the neighbors (whether you like them or not). They're likely to be less pissy and mad if you've invited them, and they probably wont show up, anyhow!

2. Call your city/town hall, see what the noise ordinance is (hours, etc)

3. Also ask if you're having a barbeque for your grandma's birthday, do you need a special permit or something.

4. DO NOT TELL THE CITY/TOWN HALL YOU ARE PLANNING A HALLOWEEN PARTY! trust me. Just dont.

Tell the neighbors in advance. Invite them. Keep the noise down. Be a respectful adult neighbor.

the police would be the least of your problems if you are having drunken parties at 12am. you would be lucky if you didnt get assaulted by your neighbours, as thats what happened to my neighbours @ 3am when I had to come home from work to get them to stop the party as my wife couldnt sleep (pregnant at the time)

you see, as you get drunk, the music mysteriously gets louder, voices get louder, and yelling is normal.

show some respect and tell your nieghbours in a flyer that you intend to have a party but will finish @ 11pm.

with neighbours, you should see no, hear no, speak no evil.

this is good advice. never sh!t in your nest.

End the party at mid-night or keep the noise down. If you want an loud party why not rent a hall and have the party there.

Um, let them know in advance and set a turn off/down time for the music...12 am sounds about right, but work it out with them. ONCE the quiet time is set, STICK BY IT!!!!
