I moved here from the midwest and farming country. We lived in a small rural community with near-by farms. I remember some folks that would buy a parcel from a farmer and build a house....THEN...get ready for it.....would complain about "country smells". You know, farm animal odors?!

That aside though....years ago we moved to a new state and community. Housing was scarce in our price-range and we had a weekend to look and purchase. We did that and then later found out the home while on a city-street, it was also a state highway. Didn't realize that when we put the offer in NOR realize that it was a blue-collar town that had shift workers (3 shifts per day) and traffic would ramp up a bit at the shift-change. BUT we weren't bothered by it as things turned out. I don't remember traffic noise so much but getting out of our drive-way at times, could be a beast. I don't feel sorry for the people that buy, then complain later.
