Their foot steps sound like they just have 2 pegs for feet… they hit so hard.
And they frequently, almost daily, spend the entire evening stomping around the entire footprint of their apartment.
Are there people who really just get the top floor, and think “I’m so smart, and everyone else can get fucked” then proceed to make all the fucking noise in the world?
It’s possible they are either disabled or have a disabled friend / family member visiting. Someone who can walk but not well. In either case hopefully it’s just one off.
Unlikely disabled, because they move quite swiftly. It’s been months, so unfortunately not one off.
Different than other people who lived above you?
It could just be the way the apartment/housing is built making any normal walking loud for you.
Have been living together with my brother with only one wall in between that has nothing in between and let me tell you: two drywalls with air in between resonates just right on a mechanical keyboard at 2am. Now obviously floors have quite different standards even just when it comes to the load they have to carry, but that said, there’s things that make it better and worse. Carpets can be good, dampening in between is good, putting little silicon plates in between stuff that connects to the floor is also good.
And then ofc if they decided to start dropping pianos on the daily, that might make a difference.
Either way, talking to them is probably the best option. There’s not really much you can do about noise from the floor above you.
