You may be correct about the noise to some extent, but the insulation value is pretty much the same because it is controlled by the building code. Personally, I think the concrete houses are better because they will have a higher resale value. Notice that very few of the large, expensive houses have vinyl siding. Also, some people confuse stucco with a painted cement finish. The concrete houses do not actually have stucco. It is a thin trowelled textured coating applied directly to the concrete or block.
