What I've noticed in my travels is that racism in the Seattle, Tacoma, Tri-Cities, and Spokane areas is that racism is shown less in the racial slurs and acts, and more so in just being divisive in how communities are. You'll know what neighborhood or area you're in simply by the predominant ethnicity of the population - and many times, if you are not visible of that same ethnicity, you will be treated differently.

Look up the property zoning and what is allowed. If it's something like Exclusive Farm Use then there might not be anything that can be done; if it's something like Rural Residential then there might be certain applicable limits to such farm animals.

Edit: spelling

I would absolutely call Monday, and then Animal Control. You have to stay up on these agencies, it's not like DFW is rolling around in the hood looking for hooligans. You and your neighbors have a right to clean air. You could in fact contact Dept of Ecology and if you reside in the southern counties the SWCAA , the southwest clean air agency for Skamania, Cowlitz, Clark, Cowlitz, Lewis and Wahkiakum. If you are on a reservation, contact tribal leaders too

My parents were having some issues with their neighbors unlicensed junkyard. The county needs multiple complaints from multiple neighbors. When enough people start to call in the problem, it gets in their radar and becomes an issue for them to address because it’s effecting multiple people. I think they needed like a minimum of 3 or 4 different complaints.

Contact your county commissioner, invite them to your home for a smell test. If there's possibility fecal matter is getting into a salmon stream the Department of Ecology should be advised. Don't expect quick results. Public nuisances created by " hostile and aggressive" people are difficult to abate.

Actually yes I was looking at Port Angeles or Port Townsend. Both have small hospitals for me to work at but finding a small rental home & an open job at the same time has been challenging.

I would contact animal control for your county and then I would contact Dept of Fish and Wildlife. You have to document document document everything. If that flock of ducks has Avian Flu and he's not being responsible about it, Dept Of Fish and Wildlife can encourage him to speed up the process.
