I'm not able to find an article now but a psychologist (I think?) that lived in Lebanon was interviewed on the quite high level of noise pollution. He said the effect is very real on anxiety, anger, unhappiness even if people don't realize it. He also remarked that people think they are going to move here and adapt. And that's because, in his words, they haven't had the experience. The idea that our lives could be adversely effected and we don't realize the cause? And if someone pointed it out we might disagree? That's scary to me.
