Excessive and unnecessary noise is a 21st century plague. The US Census Bureau reports that noise is, by far, America's #1 neighborhood complaint and the top reason people move out.
Surely, there must be decent places to live in the U.S. where the police actively stomp on boomcars and needlessly loud "exhaustmobiles" of all stripes. It's a sad commentary that places relatively free of this baneful noise are scarce as hens' teeth. After all, the noise from said machines is totally unnecessary, destroys communities, breeds crime, disorder and contempt, and generally disserves the public good. It would be great to find a "Guide to American Places to Live" where ambient noise is rated like other criteria.
