Shoddily constructed housing is beyond evil. Anyone who purposely builds thin walled, acoustically ignorant apartment complexes deserves a fate similar to the defendants in the Nuremberg trials.

Every time I see a new apartment being built, I swear they just raided Home Depot for 2x4s and plywood. I built better forts as a child. I once moved into a brand new 300+ unit apartment building (first resident of my unit) and when they make you document damage/mistakes— I sent a 70-item list of blemishes and other errors with photographs.

They’ll get you with that stuff too, yeah, dings in the walls and countertop issues. But the noise pollution part I still find to be the worst. I think there are so many n order effects of noise pollution we haven’t even grasped or researched thoroughly as a society. Have you seen all the health issues for those Texans who live in towns and villages where people have started Bitcoin mining operations nearby?

There is no fucking reason that new apartment buildings shouldn't be made such that I can't hear my neighbors while they're watching a movie at a reasonable volume. In student apartments, the noise levels were hell between parties, drunk people, sex people, and being able to hear my neighbor furiously scribbling his engineering notes.

One funny thing is that when you’re inside an old 1920s apartment building that has a terracotta exterior, sound transmission between units is often better. And don’t even get me started on terrible hotel construction. I can often hear five other rooms.
