    If a city was too quiet I’d go from being annoyed at all the noise to being paranoid that I’ll be the one being too loud.

      And that’s why people do less yelling when there aren’t cars around. That’s why removing cars makes the other stuff quieter.

      I live in a quiet neighborhood and it’s totally not an issue. Even when I lived in an apartment in a quiet neighborhood, it still was largely a non-issue. Quiet is good, and it encourages landlords and homeowners to install proper sound-proofing to preserve it.

        I live in a quiet neighborhood and it’s an issue for me.

        Until my neighbors dogs start barking and then I’m annoyed again.

        I do not like proximity to humans.
