Prison - problem if you do not want the flood lights visible from your property at night or the faint sound of announcements

I must confide that I do not live south of 44 so I do not have any personal experience with what I have said in this post. I have, however, read many many posts from people who DO have first hand experience with all three issues mentioned. Search this forum and you will find plenty of info about what it’s like living near the Turnpike, the quarry and the prison.
