Thank you everyone for all your replies - a very diverse and varied los for comments, but all have been helpful - my next lifestyle in little over a two weeks will be heavily focused on turnpike noise. For clarification, I can deal with a distant hum. I will probably be on my Lanai no more than half hour each morning for coffee. Hearing noise outside my house is not so much a concern - what I don’t want is to be able to hear any noise inside my home with my windows closed. I like the more “ open” kitchen feel better of the new homes, which is drawing me to a newer home vs an older resale.
