Live with it or move 
I would move personally or take it further if your apartment manager isnt doing anything
The stairs in my apartment always smells of weed

Move or buy an air purifier
Cigar smoking should be illegal in apartments. Period. Tell what % of the population can TOLERATE cigar smoke? Tolerate. Hating cigar smoke is almost universal.
You can actually threaten to sue the owner of the building for not enforcing the leases. Call a lawyer and see what your rights are.

Have the alarm go off anytime he smokes his cigar
Moving someplace else would be the answer.

DO NOT MOVE. Make them move. Itās easy. Be a bitch. I know of a thousand ways to do it.
You are not allowed to do anything to disturb your neighbourās peace, according to your contract.
So, stop bugging your cigar smoking neighbour. Youāre disturbing his peaceš

Sounds like youāre attempting to disturb his peace. He had every right to smoke in his apartment unless his lease dictates otherwise. I suggest that you relocate to a non-smoking property or put air filters or wic candles around your house cus its not fair for him to have to change his ways for you.

In basic terms this post reads āIām a snobby f**ker who canāt stand people enjoying their lives and doing their own thing, people shouldnāt smoke because I say they canāt and Iām also not going to move because I belong here more than the person below because Iām better than them. I want them kicking out for disturbing the peace even though all theyāre doing is smoking a cigar in their apartment, Iām not going to buy an air purifier because I own the air and what I say goesā feck off n move out, might be worth pulling that stick out your arse whilst youāre at it too

Call your local housing authority to find out about indoor smoking laws. Itās illegal in my state so not only could the individual get in trouble the management company/landlord could get in trouble too. As a former smoker that is disgusting and dangerous.

As annoying as it is, isnāt it his right to be able to smoke at his own unit? Where else is he supposed to smoke? I think if its bothering you that much and the landlord cant/wonāt do anything about it than perhaps you should move

if i were your neighbour Iād smoke even more just because yāall had the audacity to bother me and try to police what I do in my own home and outside.
you should move and leave that man alone.
Put an air filter in your apartment. I used to use one. It worked pretty good. I used that and candles when I could. Just try it.
Our best investment was our air purifier!
Costly but lasts 20 yrs plus and connects with your phone to check on air when youāre not there!
Everyone saying āyou should moveā are ignorant asl. Obviously thatās what you should do but sometimes people canāt just move just like that. I have no advice besides maybe filing disturbing the peace but idk how that would go for you or your state. Iām currently living with someone who smokes and we have asked them to stop by sheās so offended. I keep me and my kids downstairs and i canāt move due to financial issues. Plus Iām due in two weeks. So i feel for you.

Sorry but this is the life you chose in living in an apartment. If you donāt like it I would recommend moving to a non-smoking apartment.
We had a woman that lives under me that complained when I vacuumed or walked. It was to loud for her(she lived under us). ā¦ umm itās an apartment you are gonna hear your neighbors. It was low income and cheaply made as well. People need to understand an apartment is not gonna afford you the privacy or ability to control your environment like owning land or your own home.
You just have to deal!
My husband and I moved many times behind some back like this but honestly we expected so that is why we saved, bought land, and eventually built a home. Pure peace
Sorry but good luck.
Move ?
Honestly what your neighbour does in the privacy of his own home is his business.

I see evey comment coming from the downstairs neighbors pov. If you have never been affected by a chemical that literally makes it hard for you to breathe, then you will have no sympathy for how this family feels. What about their right to be able to just breathe normally in their own home that they are paying to stay in? What about their right to not be made sick by chemicals being directed into their space that they paid for? What about their right to be unmolested by horrible smells that could be prevented by common courtesy?

If itās not a violation of his lease, thereās nothing you can do. There are places where smoking inside is prohibited, find a place like that.
Find a house to rent. You donāt get to control what anybody does in that apartment complex so stop trying and move to a real home.

I was in apartment management for a while. It all boils down to whatās in the lease. If smoking indoors (or less commonly, outdoors) is prohibited, you have a case to take to management. If it is not prohibited, youāre really out of luck. If he is breaking the rules set forth in the lease, I have 2 words for you: Fair Housing. Mention these 2 words to management and explain how you feel like you are getting treated differently because you are required to follow rules and this other tenant is not. If this doesnāt get them to take action, file a fair housing complaint. Most apartment communities will avoid a fair housing complaint at all costs. Hope this helps. I do need to reiterate thoughā¦ if smoking indoors/outdoors is NOT prohibited, you donāt have a leg to stand on.

Suggest giving him a fan to put in the window facing out side to draw the smoke outside whenever he do smoke. He can leave it on 24/7 and it will draw the smoke outside instead of lingering inside.

Iām confused is he smoking inside or outside?? If heās smoking inside something definitely needs to be done about it. But sounds like heās doing it outside which may be gross but heās literally outside and not much you can do besides move 
I smoke myself but always outside and can never smell it inside my house so sounds to me as if you have a window or windows open because youāre saying itās either to hot or cold. Keep all your windows closed and it will guaranteed cut the smell. Also they make air purifiers for your home i would suggest looking into getting one they really are great. Honestly your not going to get the results you want because heās outside so youāll either have to move or find some solutions to this problem. I am guessing itās outside because you said your husband can see him etc.
See if they can put you in a different unit, or maybe look into some air filtration systems if thatās not possible. Aside from that your only option is probably to move. If smoking is allowed in the complex then the other resident is acting within his own rights. You canāt control what your neighbors do in their own home.
