Anyone who's watched "Fixer Upper" knows the show's premise and promise: "We take the worst home in the best neighborhood and we turn it into our client's dream home." Kelly and Ken Downs appeared on Season 3, Episode 10 with hopes of getting that dream home (via HGTV). 

The episode played out like any other, but the real drama happened off-camera. A while after moving in, they realized their new abode may not have been in the best locale after all.

According to the Waco Tribune-Herald (via People), the couple's new Magnolia-drenched home now shared a neighborhood with several bars, and a popular convenience store was right across the street from their house. This meant a lot of noise and traffic. While some might believe that having your own Magnolia home would outweigh any negatives, the Downs family faced much more than living in a rough part of town.

The show's popularity has brought a lot of new faces to Waco, which also brought on higher taxes for the locals. Since moving in, the couple faced significant backlash. Kelly Downs even compared the town to the Wild West. "We have been intimidated and harassed," she told the Waco Tribune-Herald. "There's a big problem here. It's not safe."

Unfortunately, public backlash would soon become the least of their problems.
