Speaking of which is that deli still in business and do they fedex?
Satriale's? It's been demolished. Check this out. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satriale%27s_Pork_Store Honestly, the most amazing grinders, subs, etc. I've had were in Reading Terminal Market in Philly. The sharp provolone is amazing! It's just the worst trying to find that taste once you leave the Northeast region. There's something different about the bread, the meat's not quite right. I dunno. I'm goin' home this summer just to stock up! I had a cannoli right before the holidays and it was a little Christmas Miracle!
I use the "standard deviation" assessment of behavior when making a decision about what to do. If the behavior is within the realm of normal; just a bit obsessive or just a tad annoying, but not in the really weird category, I'd take it in stride.
The guy you're describing seems to be outside the "normal-range odd".
I'd get the heck out of Dodge.
Jeez, there's an update. He has been at it again and went so far as to camp outside my door stomping and pounding on the siding outside. He was out there in 40 degree weather!! He didn't realize my neighbor was back and the guy opened the door and caught him there. He went back to his apartment but still didn't stop. I called the cops....again and they had a chat with him. It's quiet again for now. Unbelievable.
I don't necessarily see anything what you've described to make you move out early. Apartment complexes have neighbors that are loud, and neighbors who have fights. It doesn't make it right, but it's the nature of the beast with apartment complexes. The police cannot necessarily control the noise unless a crime or ordinance is being broken. For him to be in the common areas where you're at doesn't mean anything.
I find it interesting that the property management stated two women broke their leases because of him, but pretend not to know why. I also find it interesting you pay attention to how old the guy is when police are running his information. I don't know why it's odd that a 30-year-old person can't have parties. He has friends, and gatherings so isn't necessarily outside normal.
In short, I think he is just doing this because you called the cops on him. Nothing more, nothing less. There are no crimes that have been committed from what I've seen and I think he is only doing this to justify his past behavior. Don't put too much thought into this, and don't let him control your life on one level or another. It may seem bad, but I think these are childish games at best.
I've dealt with individuals who were like this and worse. Once your lease is up get another lease, or see if someone can take over your existing lease. In the meantime, file noise complaints with the property management company. I would also encourage you to take the necessary firearm courses, and apply for a concealed handgun license regardless.
Yeaaaaah, you see a reason I should get a gun but no reason to break the lease. <Insert eyeroll here>
I stated, "...Once your lease is up get another lease, or see if someone can take over your existing lease. In the meantime, file noise complaints with the property management company.

I'm not saying a firearm is needed in this case. What I am saying is having a firearm and not needing it is better than needing a firearm and not having one. This is regardless of the situation, as I previously stated. Nothing more, nothings less.
If you really feel that threatened by him, you should file for a restraining order. Hopefully you've been documenting these instances.
I'm sure your advice was well intentioned but there is no way to enforce a restraining order against a next door neighbor. The police dept. can't assign an officer at my door to keep this fool away and he would not be forced to move. As mentioned in the info I provided earlier, restraining orders make people like this angry--not compliant. Further, a restraining order would routinely state my full name and workplace and any other place I frequent that he would be barred from going. He would have a helluva lot of ammo to stalk me to the next place once the police handed him that.
