      Your neighbours don’t suck, your insulation sucks. Any time I had annoying neighbours, 9/10 times it was poor insulation. Sonic insulation is hugely important.

      We moved into a concrete building and then another and then another. The horrible neighbors we had in our last wood frame building - Fire’s Favourite food! - ensured we’re never going back. Now I’m aware I have neighbours but, like bigfoot, you’re never really sure they’re there.

          I was talking to one of the leasing people and complained about how they were loud all the time. They asked why I didn’t report it more

          “Why didn’t you take time out of your day to help us manage the property, for free, after all the times we did nothing about the reported noise violations??”

          Man, apartment owners and landlords are fucking useless…

      Its mostly because all of the older apartment 20th ce try or older have wood floors that reverberate lime a drumhead. Newer buildings with concrete construction elminate noise. I dont hear my neighbors ever. Will never go back to an old building.
