If you can see the turnpike, it will always be very loud.
If you can go 5 streets away from there, it will always still be loud.
If you can go a village away, you will still hear it. Wind speed and direction will make it as loud as being on the shoulder of the road, or not audible at all.
There are new villages south, further from turnpike, but with other issues to consider. Far away from shopping, or only one store of some types (such as grocery), and no big box stores. Far from golf cart access paths to amenities north of the turnpike. Far from doctor offices. Far from gas stations.
Good luck with your search.
