Mark Zuckerberg and his wife, Priscilla Chan's neighbors are complaining against them!

Mark Zuckerberg and his wife, Dr. Priscilla Chan, may be Silicon Valley's biggest powerhouse couple, but to the people in their neighborhood, they are just lousy neighbors.

People living near the Facebook CEO's $10 million house in San Francisco have apparently submitted complaints and have taken it in writing.

As recently reported, Zuckerberg's neighbors on Liberty Hill in San Francisco's Mission District wrote a complaint letter against the social media tycoon and his security team for taking up "desirable parking spots" on their street.

According to Buzzfeed, the letter was distributed to some residents in the said area, claiming that his two security SUVs have "permanently" and "illegally" parked in strategic parking spots.

"I'm sure you all agree that it can be cumbersome living next to Zuck," the complaint letter read, referencing to the year-long construction on the billionaire's property. "I think we've all tried to be as patient and civil as possible during the very long construction, the noise, the trash, the blocking of streets, etc."

"Now that all that circus is done, we are left with 2 silver SUV's permanently occupying desirable parking spots," the letter further read. "It goes without saying that living close to Dolores Park and the awesome neighboring districts already creates a challenge when it comes to street parking, so the 2 spots that are illegally being held for Zuck only makes matters worse."

Mark Zuckerberg and his wife, Priscilla Chan's neighbors added that they have cordially spoken to his security guards but that they have been instructed by a supervisor to stay on the parking spots.

"They acknowledge that they are occupying the space with no turnover and illegally," read the complaint letter. "One of the guards mentioned that she agreed that even from a security standpoint, where the cars are parked don't give the best vantage points and that she thinks they should be driving around and having a guard posted on both sides of (the street). All and all, none of this makes any sense."

Meanwhile, the Facebook CEO's spokesperson issued a statement regarding the complaint letter.

"The security team's cars are parked in accordance with local parking laws," the spokesperson told Buzzfeed. "The team strives to be sensitive to neighbors' concerns and regrets any inconvenience."

This is the second wave of criticism Mark Zuckerberg and his wife, Priscilla Chan, had received this year. A few days ago, people slammed the Facebook CEO for vaccinating their newborn baby girl, Max.
