The tweets describe the situation as reminiscent of Baghdad, with some comparing the noise to a war zone. The issue seems to be widespread, affecting both affluent and less affluent areas, with one user noting the increase in fireworks in a nicer area. The excessive use of fireworks has led to complaints from neighbors, with one user expressing disbelief at the amount being set off. The situation has prompted concerns about safety and the amount of money being spent on fireworks.
The people in the neighborhood behind us must have spent a year’s worth of salary in fireworks.

Neighbors blowing up my block like Baghdad with these pyrotechnics right now smh
The neighbors turning my block into Baghdad with these pyrotechnics bruh
When I lived in a poor area, it sucked how much my redneck neighbors loved their fireworks. Now I live in a nicer area and I guess everyone loves fireworks. But now they buy 10x as many
My neighbors are blowing up a ton of fireworks like they’re in Eastern Standard Time.
The illegal fireworks have begun in my Summerlin neighborhood. #NYEVegas
