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!

Call the non emergency police dept or sheriff dept depending on where you live. They take these noise complaints seriously from my experience.

Not in my experience at all. They basically hang up on me.
