- evgpbfhnr 8mo agoIronically it was quiet enough in our previous apartment, but moving to a house we now have the neighbor using their awfully loud snow-spitting machine before 6AM after snowy nights... (And it snows a lot)
- sejje 8mo agoLast city I lived in had an ordinance preventing this before 8am. A company I worked for had to abide by it, we'd be on-site at the customer address and start work promptly at 8.
- fuzzfactor 8mo agoIt can be pretty rough before 6 with people revving up their twin diesels just so they can get started early. Obviously that's why not that many people live in a yachting community, and those that do, hate it there ;)
- ben-schaaf 8mo agoNoise is one of the things that improved moving to an apartment for me. We've got bylaws about noise with quiet periods, bans on bothersome noise, a smoking ban and a (loud) pet ban. We also have better windows that block noise, and decent noise insulation in the floors despite the hard flooring. Compared to suburbia where neighbours started mowing at 7am, loud parties went late into the night and dogs barked all day, it's oddly quiet.
