My roommate and I are living in Boston right next to the BU campus (less than a minute walk), and one of our neighbors is an old couple that made noise complaints on us. The couple called the police on us one night and that's the reason we're being evicted. We got an eviction to leave in 7 days during finals week so we can't really focus on moving out and dealing with this properly. We lived in another apartment building that was owned by the same landlord for a year and never got a noise complaint before. The loudest we ever got was us talking in Arabic with our friends in the weekends, but the eviction states that we shout, yell and bang on the walls, when in reality the old couple bangs on our walls whenever they thought were being loud. We never play loud music, we never have parties. We asked the people living right under us if we were being loud and they never complained. Going to court is not an option as we are international students with scholarships and that might affect our standing.
