One of the tenants at my small apartment complex died on the side of his bed and wasn't found until a month later. I complained to management that something was wrong weeks before . He would usually leave a bag or two of garbage out his front door and I would throw it away for him because he had some health issues and had a hard time walking to the dumpster. I felt something was wrong when a week passed and didn't see any garbage left outside his front door. I told management about it a few times That they should check on him to make sure he was okay, but no one listened until I smelled something and saw flies swarming the bedroom window and front door... Also noticed a little cobweb at the bottom of the corner of his door I knew then that no one had been in or out of that apartment so I knocked on the manager's door again. We called the local fire department to do a welfare check and sure enough he had been decomposing on his bed for about a month.He had no one - His name was Rick - 🙏🏻✨

There was a shy international kid in my high school who suffered severe asthma attack in his apartment and passed away. He lived by himself (parents live overseas) so no one was there to help him (apparently he tried to make it to his kitchen to grab his inhaler but was too late). He didn't show up to school for a week so the school & his parents called, no one answered. When they sent the police over they realized he's already been dead for several days. No one knew about his health condition because he didn't have friends. To this day, (a decade later) I still think about that kid and his family. Just sad that he left this world alone.

If it's any comfort he probably went unconscious quickly (proven by not making it to his inhaler). I doubt he even have time to think of anyone much less be panicked, sad or regretful he was away from his family. Try to replace those sad memories you have about him by replacing them with 'he's no longer suffering' or - if you're a believer 'he's in a better place now and will see his family again someday'.

I live in Irvine, let me chip in here. I'm not trying to justify anything but here are some things that might have come into play here. First, we have real strong HOA's here. All of the outside of your house and community grounds are taken care of by landscapers paid by your HOA fees, which can be set up on auto pay or you can pay a year in advance. All the homes get the same exterior attention thus you would never know if you were living next to a vacant home. The mail usually goes to one of those community multibox stations every block or so, thus mail wouldn't really pile up, i suspect the mailman would just take it back to the station. Lastly, this is California, I've been here in this house 8 years and am just now starting to wave to a few neighbors. Addendum: For issues that are are urgent (fire, medical, even a power outage) will get us out to the street to discuss, but that's it. This whole "community" word? What does that mean? I don't need to know what my neighbors do and they don't need to know my profession. We are not going to all dance to "Fame" out in the street!

I live and work in the area. The majority of the homes in these affluent neighborhoods stand barren* quite often because the owners are constantly traveling or own multiple homes and primarily live elsewhere. Also, I've found that the wealthy either hire people that pay their bills for them, pay everything a year in advance, or are on autopay. Landscapers might be the only people who come and go from the property, but like I said, it's not uncommon for nobody to be home for long periods of time in these neighborhoods. Super sad situation, and even sadder that it took the relatives over a year to reach out. Edit: wanted to add that they may have used a PO box or another mailing address/mail service which is why mail wasn't visibly piled up.

[@sliceofspice6028]

I think the thing that confuses me as to how this went unnoticed for so long is there would have to be a very strong smell of decomposition coming from that house. In many many cases of unattended deaths that go unnoticed for longer periods of time it’s common for neighbors to notice the smell and then call it in. The fact that the community has houses that close together and no one noticed even a strange smell is odd. Either no one thought anything of the smell or that house is practically vacuum sealed. Like I personally try not to be nosey with my neighbors but if I ever smell that rotten awful smell I try to pin down where’s it’s coming from. If I just can’t seem to find it I try to ask my neighbors. Just knowing what that smell is actually like makes it hard for me to believe people just straight up ignored it.
