There goes the neighborhood

Almost everyone knows that not everyone gets along with each other and that there is always going to be a conflict between people. I remember one time in my neighborhood when people didn’t get along and they always kept fighting till someone was forced to move out. I live by 24th st and Damen ave a somewhat calm neighborhood in the middle of little village and pilsen. Someone had just moved in, in the apartment in front of my house. The apartment consisted of two floors and was owned by an old man that survived on the rent and what his sons gave him.

The guy that moved in was a twenty-six year old man with his wife and his five year old daughter. The people that already lived there were an active gang member that was already very problematic, with his girlfriend. So what happened was that after a month of the “new” people moving in there had already been many fights verbally between both of the men because of the gang member actions. One of the fights happened because of the gang member had a party in the weekend with really loud music that almost could be heard through the whole neighborhood. So the man angry because he couldn’t let him sleep so he went down and asked the guy but the guy was under the influence of alcohol and he also got angry so they started a brawl. This caused a big commotion in the neighborhood and the neighborhood convinced the owner of the apartment to take the gang member out of the house so they neighborhood could be safer.
Well this was something big that happened and this normally happens in every neighborhood when people come in that are very problematic in a calm neighborhood
