West-Tex : This is wild! Is this over in Atascocita West?

Catmae :
the north. up behind the starbucks on 1960 and timber forest

I hesitate to call any neighborhood around here "the hood", but in the mid 1990s, I lived for a few years in that neighborhood, one year on enchanted mist, and a couple on quail tree lane. I was burglarized in both houses, and had to talk to the teens across the street about smoking dope in plain view of my kids.

500 credits sent!

redneckroy :
Our next door neighbors in The Groves used to sit on the front porch smoking weed in the middle of the day in plain view of kids. A neighbor with a teen daughter talked to him about it but nothing changed. They were not nice people. The obviously didn't care.

RajunCajun :
yeah, I have a neighbor now that smokes as he walks - - I don't have too much of a problem with that, but at the time I had small kids and not only were they partying in the garage / drive - - but also dealing out of the car just down the street (talked to them about that too).

redneckroy : I suspect our neighbor was dealing. There was a lot of activity going on . Just no normal level of a friend stopping by. Our houses were close together so I pretty "done" with it. It was so bad that the smell drifted into our house on moving day. The movers were laughing about it. Quite a bit much.

Down the street from me, this is same spot the High School kid was killed a few years ago. No one was ever charged with it last I checked.

Someone posted on another site that people were going door to door trying to sell security systems on the street where this happened.

walkchalk1 : No one came to my door doing that.
