I know all about noise. I had a friend that I stayed with for a while that lived directly in the flight path for LAX. that was loud. And I lived right next to railroad tracks. And now we are right above the freeway. Its not that loud but constant. I dont even notice it unless someone points it out. I guess my mind has gotten used to filtering transportation noises  |
That's similar to what happened with JWA. There are noise monitoring stations all around the airport. I used to work for a firm that did acoustical and environmental noise testing, so we've tested airport noise a few times! It's pretty interesting.
I bet LAX was loud!
I feel bad for the people that are in the flight paths for Atlanta.
I've done the railroad tracks too...let's see...that was my first apartment after I got my first job...every 15 minutes or so...it shook the place pretty good, but like you say, we got used to it.
We have the freeway thing now...but not for long. I'm not sure what the noises will be at our new place (other than Earl and Ralph)
I know there are train tracks nearby, but I don't think they are all that close. We are kinda in the back of the neighborhood. the back of our property backs up to public greenspace
