I can believe this.
I live on a small farm in the Midwest. When my mom (who lives in NYC) comes to visit, it often takes her a few days before she can sleep well because it's so quiet at night.
Conversely, living on top of a hill, the wind absolutely screams in winter. After two or three days of constant howling wind, sometimes I feel like I'm going nuts.

- whateveracct 4y agoWhy a soundproof basement with no windows?

- tclancy 4y agoOh man, we live on top of a relatively small hill, there just isn’t anything else taller near us until you get to the White Mountains. When the wind picks up for more than two or three days at a time, I want to puncture my eardrums.
