No doubt, you’ve been hearing from friends and neighbors that “New York is back” based on the pop of activity in and around the five boroughs. It’s a stark contrast to where the city was last year when shelter-in-place precautions were taken due to the coronavirus pandemic. Folks stayed home, businesses were shuttered, parties were canceled and Gotham \u2014 for the most part \u2014 went quiet.<\/p>\n

Today, it’s a completely different scenario.<\/p>\n

According to New York’s Covid-19 tracker, over 70 percent of New Yorkers 18 years and older have received at least one vaccine dose. Restrictions were lifted and the city is bustling again just in time for summer. With that comes plenty of street sounds: cacophonous construction, blasting pub music, or rambunctious parties being thrown in the next-door apartment.<\/p>\n

For some, it’s a sign of vibrancy and the way New York is supposed to be. Like the revelers of yore who celebrated on the heels of the 1918 pandemic with the “Roaring 20s” \u2014 we find ourselves on the cusp of The Roaring 2020s<\/i>.<\/p>\n

Some of us, however, are louder than others and that may be to the dismay of our neighbors. And with July 4th right around the corner, the volume will only get pumped up even higher. Complaints have (and will continue) being made. To better understand how neighborhood noise levels have changed over the past few years, RentHop took a look at the 311 noise complaints.<\/p>\n
