While it might be difficult at first give this a try. When you settle down to meditate and right before you start welcome your noisy neighbors and from the heart. It's kind of like how Yongey explains how he dealt with panic attacks when he first started meditating. He eventually decided to welcome his panic attacks and they became his friend, his teacher and support for his practice. That's in the first 15 minutes of the YT video.

Barring that have you ever tried sound meditation? I usually use Tibetan Singing Bowl YouTube tracks I have in a playlist, but it occurs to me you can use your noisy neighbors instead. And if they're not making noise meditate on the silence.
