I can’t speak about puerto rico, but in another latin american country i’ve spent a lot of time in it’s very common for every small store to have a loudspeaker and blast (imo shitty) music from 10 to 5. That isn’t even bad compared to the many discos right next to each other than play music as loud as possible to not be dwarfed by their neighbor.
Whenever I’m in a Western city I’m grateful for how much more quiet it is (relatively anyways), even with greater density and size.
- tayo42 5y agoHesitate to say it, but I think a lot of my current noise issues are because I moved into an immigrant Mexican community without realizing it. While I'm posting things that might sound bad, I think I've noticed a correlation with more noise and lower economic class people
- artificial 5y agoHow’s the honking? I’ve moved around quite a bit and shared some of your experience from the sound of it.
