Hi, this is a follow-up to a previous question about whether full time RV'ing is right for us, motivated by some helpful points others had made about it in that question...
I'd like to get a little poll here about your experiences with noise from other people while living (or staying) in your RVs. As my other post described, I am a major noise-o-phobe and this is a real make or break issue for me.
By noise, I mean any sounds that other people make that are loud enough to hear, and go beyond my sense of a reasonable level (which is set to a low tolerance). So, for examples:
So, what have your experiences been in terms of noise and RVs, whether in RV parks, or other places that you have lived in your RV, either boondocking or not? On a scale of 1-10, with 1 being a Manowar concert (loud!) and 10 being an anechoic chamber (silent!), what have your experiences been like?
If there is a way I could tighten this question to be more well-targeted, let me know. I am pretty clueless about all things RV at this point. Thanks!

- Car, truck, bus, motorcycle, boat, or other RV engines/exhaust noise
- Stereos in vehicles ("boom cars"), or in houses/RVs
- Loud talking nearby
- Children playing/babies crying
- Lawn care noises (motorized lawn mowers, edgers, leaf blowers, trimmers, etc.)
- Car alarms
- Construction equipment
- Outdoor events, concerts; people playing musical instruments (note to retired rock and roll guy: yes, it's A-OK if you are attending the concert! Just don't want to hear it in my house, though the Springsteen bleeding out of Fenway in '04, OK that was fine)
- Trains
- Etc.
