Neighbourhood Noise
Neighbouring houses at night
Neighbourhood noise is noise where the effects are confined to a small area. For example, noise from a club, entertainment venue, small factory or building site. The individual sources of neighbourhood noise are usually easy to identify.
Neighbour noise, or domestic noise, affects the smallest number of people, but can be the most annoying and is the most complained about. The most common neighbour noise complaints are about loud music and dogs barking. Burglar alarms, loud televisions, shouting, banging doors, and DIY work are also common sources.
