- Those who are satisfied with their landlord’s approach to handling anti-social behaviour praise their proactive attitude to resolving issues, feeling that they are effective and do their best to resolve reported problems. Additionally, whilst some tenants are satisfied as they do not experience anti-social behaviour often, others feel that more could be done still, and highlight persisting examples of anti-social behaviour in their neighbourhood, such as drug use or noise pollution
- Experience of specific examples of anti-social behaviour is the most common reason tenants are neither satisfied nor dissatisfied with their landlord’s approach to handling anti-social behaviour. Some tenants are ambivalent as they feel the council is trying but cannot resolve issues, whilst others feel the council is not doing the best it can, suggesting solutions like CCTV or removing problem tenants. Other tenants are unsure as they have little experience with anti-social behaviour
- Those who are dissatisfied with their landlord’s approach to handling anti-social behaviour largely complain about experiencing many instances of anti-social behaviour where they live, whilst others are critical of the council’s capacity to deal with issues, finding that they have not resolved reports or do not have the power to solve the problem. Some dissatisfied tenants also critique their experience of reporting anti-social behaviour to their landlord, feeling that the council’s communication is poor or that they are not taken seriously
