angie, one of the last things that the police force wants is bad publicity.

a letter to the newspaper will certainly light a fire under their butts.

a call to the television station will also do something. the letter will be published and the television station will probably send a reporter down to the station to talk to the chief about your problem.

your landlord doesn't want any negative publicity either. if he does get such publicity, he'll have trouble getting potential renters interested in his property.

i'm sorry that this is happening to you. it happened to me when i lived around the corner from a house that had a father who absolutely let his grown children run wild. it took forever to get cops out there but, a letter to the newspaper, about the police not doing anything, got it done!
