OP, Any lot or house south of 44, currently available, I would visit six or seven times and hear for myself. We live about halfway between 466A and 44. It’s very quite here but still close to everything. You will be surprised how far noise can travel but on the other hand you sort of get use to it. Several years ago, we purchased a home with a beautiful pool in Central Illinois that backed up to a busy parkway and at times the noise was so bad during peak daytime travel that we never got use to it. Where we lived, the speed limit was 55 miles an hour on the parkway but few traveled the speed limit. It was okay inside the house. The experience taught us a valuable lesson. We lived there two years and bought a new house in a quite neighborhood. Good luck with your retirement.
