To Complain or Not to Complain...

I am having a dilemma and I need advice from my GC fam on what to do.

My downstairs neighbors are crackheads. I have never seen them smoke crack or anything, but I just KNOW. (If you saw my neighbor, you'd have NO doubt in your mind either!) There are people in and out of there all day, everyday. Some of these people look quite unseemly, if you know what I mean. Well, this morning's incident was the last straw.

Here it was 4:30am and someone is BANGING on the door downstairs. They proceed to come around to the bedroom window and begin BANGING once again. When that didn't work, they returned to BANG on the front door. Finally, they come BACK to the bedroom window and proceed to YELL for someone to open the door, in conjunction to BANGING. I was so startled by the initial banging that I nearly fell out of bed. I looked at the clock and it was about 4:30 am. Of course, I was BOILING mad and COULD NOT go back to sleep!!

This is NOT the first time. These "people" are constantly in and out. They BANG on the door at random hours of the day and night. Some of them couple their banging with yelling so that they can gain entry or "score." Today was just the last straw because you all know that I am in school and keep crazy hours. After being in school all day and FINALLY having the chance to get some rest before it all starts again, the last thing I want is to be disrupted from my sleep by some damn crackheads!

My dilemma is deciding if I should complain or not. And if so, what is the nature of my complaint? I feel like I am in a Catch-22. I live alone so I am concerned with the charaters that come around this area. I don't fear for my safety, but I am concerned. However, I know that carckheads are unpredictable and I don't want to "snitch" on them and they try to do me something. I also don't know what to tell the office if I do complain. I know that people are free to have company as they please, so I don't feel like I can complain about people knocking on the door. But this "traffic" has GOT to stop. I have had enough.

PLEASE offer me some suggestions. (And for the record, moving is NOT an option right now) What should I do?
