I don't blame the people living there for not mowing the lawn, that is the landlords fault not theirs.
Like 9 Eminem impersonators that happen to share a house? Could a single city really support 9 different Eminem impersonators? The first few that got into the business I get, but unless the 9th guy was just incredible he really should have gone in a different direction.Have you talked to them or is there a language barrier? Are you intimidated to approach them? Chitowncy's advice seems the best if the ability to communicate with them isn't the issue. You could always offer them use of your mower once or twice or offer to mow their lawn to be neighborly. If that doesn't work, it's easy enough to cut off since you control that part of the situation anyway.
I'm a little curious why their nationality doesn't matter, yet you brought it up anyway. Would it be different if they were all white guys that looked like Eminem? Cuz that would scare the hell outta me.

My suggestion is just communicate with the renters directly and politely. Most of the time if you nicely approach someone not to do something they will listen. Option 2 keep your hose handy..... hehehehehNeed some advice,
In February the house next door sold, and the guy who bought it is renting it out. There is currently 9 people living there all between the ages of 30-40, all Indian nationality (not that it matters), and only 1 has a job. Keep in mind, its a 4 bedroom house.
Lately, my neighbor on the other side of me and I have noticed that they will be out wandering, talking on their phone, and walking through both of our backyards. When we catch them we will signal them to get off our property but I don't think they get the hint.
What should I do? I don't think talking to the landlord will help, as we are currently fighting with the city because they wont mow their lawn and they keep making up excuses on why they cant get their mower over there.
I brought up the nationality because I meant to say there was a language barrier.
That depends on their rental agreement.

The Indian reference may be relevant. Fences are very important in many Indian cultures. If you own property, but don't put up a fence, you actually may lose some of your rights to the land. Or more specifically, you lose your right to prevent someone from coming on the land. Even a very low fence sends the message about a property line.
I would arrange a neighbor get together. Get Indian carryout to serve. Find someone who speaks English and talk about it casually as a cultural matter. There are probably a few misunderstandings that need to be worked out on both sides. If you don't find a mediator, then you are likely to encounter more incidents.
