Hello, first I hope this is an appropriate section, like I've opened with in most of my other threads I have no other forums I visit and used my best judgement picking this section.
So anyway. I rent a small unit in a multiplex with about 8-9 others all throughout, the whole place is about the size of a regular 2-story house, so the units are fairly close quarters.
Now, that wouldn't really be much of a problem if the other tenants were at least somewhat respectful, and just had a single shred of decency, but unfortunately they don't, and pretty much every one of them is a disrespectful criminal delinquent indecent - so of course ridiculously obnoxious - heathen, with many things that I could mention, but the main thing is the truly ridiculous slamming things around, and window, wall, floor and mattress rumbling thumps and thuds that go on all day and night long Monday through Sunday 12 to 12 truly consistently.
I first thought maybe wearing headphones most of the time would be a somewhat considerable solution. But then like I said about the floor mattress etc. rumbling, not only is it all more than audible but I can feel it too, so wearing headphones doesn't do much.
So I'm posting this to maybe get some ideas on what might help make it less noticeable and/or tolerable. Now, before you mention anything like just moving and finding a new place or letting the landlord know etc. I've already mentioned it a few times to him, and due to various reasons I (at least at this time) can't find any other place to rent although I check every single day, many times on numerous sites desperately trying to.
My best idea so far is thinking about maybe buying an air mattress, and maybe some extra blankets and whatnot, all to place on top of my mattresses I already use... You know as like a sort of cushioning/dampening type effect... But I just don't want to go and spend a decent amount of money (especially when trying to save it for a new place) on something like that which wouldn't do much if anything to help.
