The “Not Just Bikes” guy is well loved by a certain age of cycling and city enthusiasts who don’t have any idea what it’s like to be older or who have to deal with real world non-idealized city apartments.
Neighbor noise (and other issues) is a huge issue that these threads always ignore.
- lelandbatey 5y agoNeighbor noise can be an issue depending on location, but many of us write it off because we currently live in cities and find that neighbor noise is not a problem and is not something we care about given how minor of an event it is when we do experience it at all. I suspect that your experiences and expectations may differ from others in this thread. What are your expectations and experiences in this area?
- foobiekr 5y agoI dealt with neighbor noise in 3/5 apartments I rented. It is why I will _never_ share walls again. What you're really saying is that you are a person who is not bothered by neighbor noise. That's fine, you've self-selected into an environment where tolerating that is necessary. You should realize that most people find neighbor noise to be a stressor, especially as they get older. Also, as an aside, everyone I know who below the top economic tier and lives in SF _commonly_ complains about neighbor noise. I think you might just be insensitive to it.
