I'm in a 2 floor house, on the 1st because since I had a seizure going down the stairs at my previous apartment. I am not going to run away due to a rude neighbor. That's why I was moving here in the first place.

then go to the tenant with complaints. tell them about the loudness and the rudeness when you asked politely. if that didn't work then move. there is tenants that will get the quite after a certain hours. or you can get a apartment where you are on top or get side by side apartments or 3 in 1 houses. my sister has a side by side 2 -1 apartment.
