Our neighborhood is SO loud during the day! We live in one of the most densely populated cities in the country-- the houses are practically on top of each other, we are surrounded by large families with small children on all sides, and everyone here hires gardeners (equipped with an arsenal of leaf blowers, heavy duty electric lawn mowers, and weed whackers) to manage their 5 square foot lawns and palm trees. It's a good thing DD sleeps well at night because her naps are crap! She sleeps so well when we go on vacation to quiet locales. I think we need to invest in a real sound-blocking white noise machine instead of the ineffective iPhone white noise app we currently use!

How noisy is your neighborhood?
