Buy a house on a cul de sac. Also, make sure that your bedroom window is not near your neighbor's pool pump, and that it won't be when your neighbor decides to install a pool. Pool pumps are almost always installed on the garage side of the house. If you go to an open house, and the agent is playing music, ask them to turn it off so you can hear any traffic or other noises that the agent may be trying to hide.
