Do you get well your neighbours, or are the people living next door stressful? A new report says that a quarter people in Britain have had problems with their neighbours the past year. The survey was carried by an organization called "Which?” It tries to help and protect consumers. The researchers asked 2,062 adults their relations with neighbours. They found that 27 per cent had experienced problems. "Which?" said its website that: "Half [ the people] were left feeling angry and half felt irritable, 42 per cent saying they felt stressed, and one ten admitted to feeling afraid." It added: "The survey also found that 64 per cent didn't know where to go to seek help and advice."

The biggest complaints neighbours were loud voices and the sound arguing. Loud music and televisions, and doors slamming were also a problem. People also described drug use and police arriving their neighbour's house. Only one-third people spoke the noisy neighbour the problem. However, people said the problem became worse if the neighbour did not apologise or continued their annoying behaviour. "Which?" said 86 per cent young people (those aged 18-24) did not know where to go to get advice. A "Which?" spokesperson said: "Our research has found that young people especially are suffering silence." "Which?" said people needed to keep a diary unneighbourly behaviour.
