Poll - How do you feel about people who park in front of your house?

Ladies, I am not referring to people having parties and such, that strangers park in front of your house. And I am not referring to neighborhoods where people have to fight for parking and have to take what they can get.

Be honest!!!

I hate it. My next door neighbor's kids have over night guests very often and they park in front of my house all the time. Then I have to park 2 houses down.

Sometimes my husband and I park our cars in front of our house so they can't park there. Then they give us dirty looks because they can't park.

I NERVE OF ME!!! lol

I thought in LI it was an unwritten rule to park by your own house if you can!

It doesn't bother me normally especially since our cars are usually in the garage and we have a large driveway. However, the last couple of weekends the young men that rent a house across the street from us have a friend of their's park in front of our house (while no one is in front of their house) and leave it there for 4 days while they go out to the Hamptons. Makes absolutely no sense, but whatever.

When I lived on LI, it drove me absolutely nuts!!!

Re: Poll - How do you feel about people who park in front of your house?

That is one benefit of where I live-- no one really parks in the street for any amount of time, because no one is allowed to park in the street overnight, even if you are parking in front of your house. If someone is staying over, you have to call the police and tell them so they will not ticket you, but if you call too often, they give you a hard time, or tell you no. It can be annoying, but it is nice to see streets that are not full of cars, and it is safer to walk around at night b/c no one can jump out from behind a car.

My Uncle got sick and tired of his neighbors doing this so he put cones there, after 3 months they got the hint and never parked there again. this was after numerous times of him asking them not to (the have a 3 carwide DW).

I get annoyed, Im not going to lie.

.............But is usually because of some neighbor who has a HUGE driveway and chooses not to use it, parks in front of his house and then if anyone visits, they park in front of my house!

we have never had anyone park in front of my house. when my neighbors have big parties their guests park across the street in front of my neighbors huge side yard.
My stepdaughter lives in Lynbrook & everytime we pick her up or bring her home there is a neighbors car in front of her house. Her Mom & stepdad sometimes leave one of their cars in the street just so the neighbors can't park there.
I think I'd be ****** and I'm pretty sure I'd say something.

When I still lived at home, it didn't bother us toooo much when someone parked in front of mom's house... (she has no home opposite hers... and she's on a dead end street)....

BUT, there was this time when 2 late teens boys would park just out of eyeshot of our neighbors house, and in front of ours late at night.... and I believe they were friends of our troubled teen neighbor.... We began to ask them to leave when we suspected they were up to no good.... possibly doing drugs? I dunno... none the less, they were trying to hide from our neighbors, so it can't be anything good....
I think we may have even threatened to call the cops on them after several times...

Re: Poll - How do you feel about people who park in front of your house?

It doesn't bother me (although it bothers my husband) we all park in front of someones house at one time or another, also, no one owns the street, so park where you like. Just don't block my driveway. If I come home and someone is parked in front of the house, I park somewhere else...then later, I move the car!

No big deal!

I live in a dead end so usually no one parks there....but a few months back some neighbors had a party and a bunch of people parked there while we were out....it was so bad we could hardly get in the driveway...soooo rude!!

Re: Poll - How do you feel about people who park in front of your house?

The people across the street have their renters park in front of our house. The apartment that they are renting in not a legal apartment either and they have a HUGE driveway that could fit probably 5 cars! It gets us so mad because our friends/family can never park in front of our house, and when it snows the plows never do a good job in front of the house because their cars are always there.

The last couple that rented actually made a comment to me one day when I had to park in the street in front of my house, because I parked where he had normally parked. I was livid for days.

Then one day I was walking my dog on a leash on my front lawn and the renter was walking to his car he screamed "you better keep that dog away from me!" Um hello, my house I can have the dog go where we please. I actually was trying to then teach my dog to growl when she saw him, but it never worked. My DH then started to try and have the lawn mower blow stuff all over their car, so they would move it, but they never got the point.

We were sooo excited the day we saw the moving van when they were moving out.
