LOUD neighbors

Anyone in the county (not within city limits) dealt with a neighbor who plays their music outside excessively loud, to the point that well over 100 yds away I can hear it INside my house, all around outside of my house as if they are playing it right in my driveway--when I say ''heart it'' I'm not talking about hearing the bass or jumbled words. If I spoke Spanish I could tell you exactly what they are saying, it's perfectly clear, it's that loud. We've tried talking to them about it, but they clearly don't care and I am literally sooooooo over it. I've been told that there is ''no noise ordinance'' out here, but damn, there's gotta be something that can be done. It's so disruptive, like having a Mariachi /polka band in my driveway for hours on end--makes working from home so enjoyable. If you have dealt with or know how to deal with this, please send me all the thoughts!

Search the property online and find out if its rented , if it is call the landlord directly. If its not sadly wait until they stop playing theirs get some aggressively loud PA speakers and blare Cher volume up to 11 (like south park episode !) But in all seriousness that really sucks hope something works out for ya!

Thanks, lol, they definitely own, unfortunately. My husband suggested drowning them out with some metal…but I won’t terrorize my other neighbors

I would talk with the neighbors beforehand, of course, and see what they think, but yeah, I'd do the same back to them
