To be pissed off at housing tenants

To be pissed off at this
We live in a nice area, there isnt much available to rent. The last 4 bed was 4500 a month that came up 2 months ago.
We were renting at 3000 a month an older house but it needed work and the landlord decided to sell so we moved out and living in a temporary small flat further away from kids schools waiting and waiting for 6 months for a house to come up.
We have heard from several friends that in the area the council have moved a problem family in to a large house in one of the roads. They dont work, 4 kids, police round all the time, stolen car crashed into a lampost, kids out the front screaming, teen age boy being arrested.
Anyway, these absolute scummers are living for free in a house we would love..
Whilst I am paying 40 percent tax and effectively homeless with 2 kids. Waiting for a house to come up that I can afford as 4500 is out of budget and property is scarce.
I am basically paying for these people to live in a house i can not afford to live in myself.
Am I a Mug? Should I move countries?
What is the fecking point in working anymore.

I’m not going to out them on here after saying they are antisocial dossers 😆 It is a beautiful property that has appeared in magazines due to the previous owner and the point is it is beyond what most people could afford but they get to live there despite never working and not looking after it or previous properties.

The upside is they have no near neighbours now so cant piss them off unlike when they lived near us.

Seriously? I still don’t believe it.

No I don't think they deserve to live in a house for free whilst causing anticosial behaviour and also in a place that most tax payers can't afford themselves.
I think it takes tbe piss out of working people.

Our local police etc force (we are on a border so 2 forces., have warned the parents of antisocial kids (mainly boys, on electric bikes/scooters, often delivering drugs - info from PACT meeting) that names are being passed to social housing etc and there is a real risk they could be evicted. Ive known of 2 cases that have. Issue ofcourse is they have to live somewhere, so they might get kicked out but will turn up somewhere else can cause havoc there!
