Over the past week or so I've been noticing different cars stop in the neighbors driveway, someone go inside, stay for about 5 min then come out of the house and drive away. I figured they were selling stuff on Craigslist, but then noticed everyone leaving empty handed!
My wife tends to sell stuff on Craigslist so we've been having cars stop, people stay for five min and leave too, but they always leave with an animal or some item. And were deffinitely not selling drugs, I wonder I they think we do too though, and if that could be a problem..
They seem very nice but keep to themselves, they're a younger couple and have 2 kids about 10 or so. They also have a big Rottweiler they never play with and keep locked up.
Anyway I'm not trying to be a nosey neighbor but is that consistent with selling drugs? Meth is big here apparently but they don't look like Meth addicts.
Could be drugs, gambling, selling tickets or any other small item, they could be property managers and people come by and pay rent, could be taking donations for a charity....anyone's guess

There are any number of legitimate reasons. If they were selling drugs you would probably be able to tell by the people that are going in and out. here in our little city there are over 400 homes which are running a home based business, however the business license limits the number of customers and deliveries that we can have a day.
I agree with ignoring them until you actually have some reason to believe that criminal activity is going on.
Some people list their house for sale without putting a sign on the front yard. Especially with short sales as they don't want their neighbors to know they are potentially losing their house. Just a thought.
