From aggressive, noisy or abusive behaviour to neighbourhood disturbances involving drugs or animals, antisocial behaviour takes many forms.
The council is using the week, which runs from November 18 to 24, to raise awareness of how people can access support and report ASB through housing offices, the council website, or Hampshire Constabulary.
It has also installed new CCTV cameras and funded safety measures like alarms, extra security, and joint police/ambulance patrols through grants from the police and crime commissioner.
Cllr Christie Lambert, cabinet member for communities and safer city, emphasised the importance of reporting ASB to target resources effectively, while Southampton Chief Inspector Mark Lumley said the force was committed to tackling ASB-related problems.
Recent actions include closing properties linked to ASB and working with schools to address youth-related issues.
For emergencies dial 999. For non-urgent matters, contact 101 or use online reporting options.
