Entitled neighbours are driving me crazy

New neighbours recently moved in across the road.

They're a young couple with a dog, and she was pregnant. I didn't see them much over the summer, other than when we had to complain about various issues.

The first was garbage, which they put out in bags instead of bins. Not surprisingly, the raccoons got in and made a mess. We thought they would clean it up, but by the end of the day we had to ask them to do so. This happened about three times before they finally got bins.

The second was a noise and mess issue from landscaping and construction. Their workers would start at 7 a.m. every day of the week, which isn't allowed where we live, and work well past 7 p.m. Plus, they would leave their mess, blocking the sidewalk, taking up limited street parking and generally creating an unpleasant environment for the surrounding neighbours.

Now I see her walking down the street, chatting loudly on the phone while a nanny trails behind her pushing a stroller and holding the dog's leash. Are these people just extremely entitled millennials?
