Theres a house across the street from my freinds house that has prostitution and drugs. I am checking out this house so I can report it to the cops. My first problem is the house number does not match to the others next door as it should. Is it pretty normal for adresses to not go in exact order? Where could I find out exact adresses?
I've worked in EMS for years and found that different cities do different things. But when searching for houses I have found that the street numbers do not always run in order. Especially if there are spaces or gaps between the current structures. They leave out numbers in case someone decides to build another structure in between existing stuctures.
Your local Fire Dept or EMS agency are great sources for info. Or just call the Police and tell them that it is the house accross from XX and give a description of the house that you want to report. You can also try to catch the mailman and ask them what the address is. Good Luck!
The City or County should have maps that are public information too. Go to City Hall and ask.

Also check with post office.
If you are in New York State as your header says, then the city/town tax assessor will have a correct map with that info. All you should need is the street name and the approximate street numbers in the area so they can locate the property. They have to show you this information, though you may get some hesitation. It is a matter of public information for anyone to view. As far as going in order, my house is #24, across the street is #13
the addresses should run odds on one side and evens on the other. if the house is a corner it could have the number of the other street. it could also jump a whole block like from 300 block to 400 block if it is 2 blocks connected because of no cross street at that point. or an alley running through. or maybe the thugs in the house put the wrong number on the house on purpose. the last idea is probably more accurate.
Thanks for the help. I have tried the Dallas County Appraisals District with no luck I think the system is down. Also there are no spaces in between the houses ,each house is a duplex though. We will be checking with the police dept here in a minute, but I did tell him to stop the post man tomorrow. The thing is that we are trying to do this as anonymous to these people as possible. If we just call the cops they will go to my friends house and its very possible they will tell these people who the complaint is coming from:mad: . I am thinking the house is/was condemed and these people went and moved in. There is some weird things going on here and its getting worse. The neighbor has called the cops a few times but cops show up these people stick their head out of the other side of the duplex and say they just recently moved out. Cops say ok bye bye, couple hours later back in bussiness.
....any access to some C-4....:) end of problem. Not very legal but neither are the goofballs selling their crap in your neighborhood:HMMM:
sometimes they do, and sometimes they don't run in order... I have seen it where, the street numbers go up to a certin point on a street. and start on another street paralell to it at the same spot, usually a cross road between the 2... also the Amityville horror house had it's house number changed because of publicity and the new owners didn't want visitors.
if you have street numbers from the surrounding 2 houses, you can get the parcel and block number for the house in question, and from there find the house number..Quote:

One way or the other, the problem is solved. It may require you to set up a meeting with someone in authority, like a watch commander or captain. Also, notify the local news media. Big help in getting the P.D. to reacted.Quote:

So u think by u staking out a house and reporting it to the police your gonna accomplish something? Nothing but trouble heading your way.. Exspecially if there anybody of importance.. If I was you I would mind my own bizzness and jus use the 911 if u feel the need dont stake peoples house out.. The police have dibs on more then u may know of..
:LOL: What!!!Quote:

I understand wanting to remain anonomous -
Get the addresses on either side and describe it as 'between' this and that.
I had posted above that I did that. Cop said it was the wrong house number.Quote:

Cops get mad at me cause I will not rat them out. Another example is I grew up in hood , my sister still lives their. One day person put her nose where should have not been. Lady spent weeks in hospital. Things today are really srewed up.
So your saying its ok? Crazy:D What you cooking cookster,:LOL:Quote:

No i'm not cooking cookster it's my last name.
Na neighbors are tired of it, I know this for a fact. If some thing were to go down we would probably be the last to come to mind. The neighbor next door to them has came out with a gun and was almost pushed to the point of shooting until the cops got there.
Denny , That's point I was trying make.
Cops ARE doing there job! My wife has been calling and calling and a det calls yesterday . He gave her a lot of info that I did not think they would. The place got raided this morning and they pulled out 2 under age girls that these people have been prostituting out of the house and a lot of meth. they did get the girls ( the same ones they pulled out of there about a month ago). Some might call me a snitch but I hate seeing low life pieces of sh1t ruining young lives!!!
They need bring out Village stoning! :mad:
I'm for public hangings also. ;) but that won't happen. :HMMM:
Pat
We both think the same way, but I'll go one step further. There ought to be some Blackfeet, Crows, Apaches, etc out of work and we let them peel the sob's and see how long they can keep them alive. :eek: :rolleyes: :mad:Quote:

hey big truck heres a thought , i grew up in the same situation as you have described , the neighbors got together and purchased the local crack house just for the tax owed , between about 15 neighbors it came out kinda cheap
they then tore the house down and the problem was solved at least for a little while , you more than likely already know , you tear down one and another will take its place...
Druggies and their homes are just like cock roaches - eradicate one - a dozen appear to take it's place:CRY: :CRY:Quote:

Same situation here.... In the past couple weeks they have actually been fixing up the other dope house:eek: The problem really is not with these losers its with the big guy that has a couple of these house , big bussines . He will come by about once a month in a 2008 vette or the full size pimped out Hummer that has 10,000 dollar rims on it.:whacked:Quote:
