I don't know if secondary suites make things worse, but I completely understand. Living next to trash renters is just about the worst possible situation. We moved very specifically because of the losers next door. They've helped shape my opinion on open fires in an urban setting, noise bylaws, alcohol restrictions, and thoughts towards mandating that all U-Haul vehicles have automatic ignition shut-off after 10pm.
I'm sure there are owners who live like complete inconsiderate savages somewhere, but I've never lived by them. It's always renters - and most often, renters who are living in a place cheaper than the average. I pray that these secondary suites aren't specifically being introduced just to lower rents.
