Hello, Im in Ga.
I want to know if i can legally break a lease without paying the rest of the lease off if i do not feel safe in my apartments anymore. The building next door is full of teenagers who stay out there all day and night selling drugs, we hear gunshots almost every other week, the police are at the building next to us about every other week, i am a 19 year old pregnant female and when i go outside to walk my dog, these guys eye me and look at me like they are gonna hurt me or something. I've got car key scratches all over my car, my mothers car has a rag top and someone slashed it trying to get in.
The family who lived across from us just moved because their car was broken into 3 times, the windows smashed, they had their gps taken and the hsuband had all of his work tools taken resulting in about $4,000 of things lost. Plus, she told me someone tried breaking into her apartment a couple times, and this is right across from me! We had neighbors for one day, their car rims got stolen the night they moved in and the left immediately. Half the apartments in my building are empty from people moving because of things like this and i do not feel safe, i am alone for most of the day and these kids know which apartment i am in. I do not want to move to another building in the complex, i just want out, and i don't want to have to pay the rest of the lease. this is getting ridiculous.
Can you please help me with some advice? I would really appreciate it.
