My wife and I are retired and recently relocated to Springtown. We were comfortably living on the outskirts of Azle until a large oil and gas company built a compressor station near our residence. The facility noise and lease road traffic noise became unbearable so after a few years of trying to cope with it we decided to cut our losses and move on. We bought a new home from Miles Realty and now live on Jo Jones road. The home buying experience and process was great until everything was finalized and we got moved in. I've lost count of how many repairs we've already had to make to our brand new home. We've spent hot days without ac and cold days without heat. We've also went more than 6 hours at a time without water while repairs were being made to the plumbing. Electrical, sewer etc has all been a disaster. Aside from all of that, it feels just like our previous residence of 22 years did the last 3 years we were there. Tommy Miles and his nearby development has been a total nightmare. We have actually been experiencing more noise and other issues living here than we ever had living nearer to a larger city and next to a 4 acre oil & gas facility and it's lease road. Tommy Miles and his buffoon's have absolutely no respect or courtesy for others. We are constantly, day and night, hearing loud rumbling, roaring and beeping construction equipment and loud rumbling vehicles. It goes on seven days a week, day and night. The noise is never isolated to one area either. Tommy's employees drive large construction equipment all around the area on public roads and even on private property. The area is complete chaos and has been for a long time based on what we are experiencing and what other folks all around the area have told us. A majority of the noise and chaos comes from 371 Young Road (Young Rd & James Goldie Dr). It is a dumping ground where some of Tommy's employees live in a couple of old houses. It is also a staging area for all of Tommy's large construction equipment. If Tommy's employees aren't driving in and out of there all day and night on construction equipment then they're constantly in and out in their own personal unnecessarily loud vehicles. Tommy in his large black truck and all of his employees are always parking construction equipment and personal vehicles along the roads blocking most access thru the area, day and night. My wife and I have been leaving out and coming home on Old Springtown Rd and Young Rd to avoid the busy and dangerous intersection of FM 51 and Sandlin. Well, last weekend when my wife was bringing the grandchildren over for a visit, a woman on a large tractor backed right out in front of her at 371 Young Road. Luckily my wife was paying attention because the woman on the tractor was not. We now have to take the longer loop around Sandlin to get home as to avoid the dangerous intersection of FM 51 & Sandlin and to avoid Tommy's dump at 371 Young Road. The list goes on and on! My wife and I are unfortunately now considering relocating, again. The noise and chaos in the area is too dangerous and has now also become a health issue because of the loss of sleep and rest. This is what our local communities and people have become. So sad but absolutely true. My advice would be to avoid living within or even passing through a 5 mile radius of 371 Young Road. Very dangerous and inconsiderate people have made this area very unpleasant.
