Constant noise becomes background sound and soon goes un-noticed. It's intermittent noise that I find more disturbing.
That traffic noise I heard as a kid never went un-noticed by me, especially in the morning when there wasn't any other noises other than birds as they were waking up to a new day. It always bothered me seeing homes lining the Belt Parkway on Long Island and any other parkway for that matter. It has always been a sore spot.
