I'll try to keep this brief. The house we share a majority of our backyard fence with has been overrun by tweakers.

The previous owner of the house passed away some months ago. We don't know whether or not the house was inhereted by her family or if it has been overrun by squatters. They moved in maybe four months ago. I'm not positive on the timeline of everything.

They started accumulating a TON of junk in both their front and backyards, even including shopping carts. There's always a lot of weird foot traffic around the house. They've now been without power for about a month and are up late at night just using a bunch of flashlights to do whatever they're doing with all their junk in their garage and backyard. They've started lighting fires in their backyard, recently one of them smelled horrible, like they were burning garbage or plastic.

We've already called code compliance. The first time I called I was actually able to get someone on the phone, it just happened to be the guy working the case. He knew exactly which house I was talking about. They've had multiple complaints filed against them. He issued them an order to clean up their garbage, he said if they didn't comply he was going to go investigate to see if they have plumbing/try to discern if they're squatting and get the police involved, but that was a couple of months ago now and it seems like nothing has happened yet.

We've called non-emergency, but they won't come unless there's an active dispute or crime in progress. I called to let them know that they've been out of power for a significant time now and that we're concerned about the safety and responsibility with which they're hosting these bonfires in their backyard with all of that trash around. We are concerned for the safety of our home and neighborhood and about the potential for a fire getting out of control. Haven't personally seen any results from that.

One time my partner heard someone screaming for help from that house and went over to investigate to make sure everyone was ok or if they needed help - he was confronted by a man who was clearly on drugs saying that "he doesn't do meth and everything was fine," a response that was completely unprompted and unwarranted by my partner, who was just checking in.

What do we do? Is there any course of action? Our neighbors have put up cameras next to their house, I'm sure to try to deter or capture any suspicious/criminal/dangerous activity, but their rotating garbage pile and general flow of foot traffic at all hours of the day has only gotten worse. What happens if those are the people who actually inherited and now own the house?

TL:DR: Tweakers moved into (and potentially are squatting in) our neighbor's house. We are concerned for our own house's safety and the safety of our neighborhood. We have already filed complaints with code enforcement and have contacted EPD non-emergency, and we are wondering what anonymous steps to take to resolve our issues with our unsavory trash neighbors.

EDIT: I've checked out the property on the tax assessor's website. One of the actual owners is deceased and the other one is supposedly 105 years old. It's definitely not him living in there, and it looks like the house is currently delinquent on payments. Squatters all but confirmed. Dang 😮‍💨

I've heard good things about the bumbum creme and am curious about badalada 39, but literally have nooooo idea what I'm getting myself into. Just want something that smells tropical and delicious and want to smell like an absolute babe. One of my former favorite tropical scents was Tahiti Sweetie from Bath and Body Works, RIP

super excited to try out Sol de Janiero! Is there anywhere I could go smell it/try the products out in person?

EDIT: specifically looking for a lotion!

Id love to have a tracker on my home screen. I did some research for a short time looking for one last night but couldn't find one that was both free AND had a widget - any suggestions? Starting 16-8 today!
