Yes, it can be heard from most locations in the South. Just depends on your noise tolerance. Gets louder at night and some areas are noisier than others. We never really noticed it until someone pointed it out. If you are concerned be sure to visit the area you are thinking of moving to both day and night. Also check inside with windows, door shut and outside.
