Agree.....the sound of a train off in the far distance can be very comforting.

Turnpike Noise
At least the turnpike noise might make you forget about the quarry blasting, and living next to a federal prison.

We bought a house in Taylor villas and we aren’t too concerned about the noise as we grew up on Long Island in NY and noise and traffic were factors everywhere except the beach! We were sitting on the lanai the other night and yes, you can hear the traffic a little bit but to us, it kind of sounds like ocean waves when they hit the shore. Like so many others have said here, it really is a matter of personal opinion and what you’ve been used to in the past. For us, it was not a dealbreaker and we love being so close to a beautiful dog park and soon, a shopping center!

When are you people going to give up on the quarry and prison, no one down her really cares about them, re-sales are generating huge profits for those selling to move into another new home down here and they are selling new homes as fast as they can build them. One salesman told me that this is the only place where used homes are selling for more than equal new homes. Why, because they are ready to move into. Two years ago my neighbor bought a Woodside for $470,000, put in pavers, landscaping, and an enclosed lanai and it sold the first day for $640,000 and it's not on a golf course, that gives you an idea of what is happening down here.

Trees do almost nothing to mitigate road noise. You would have to have about a hundred feet of dense evergreen trees to begin to see any difference. I used to be on a planning board and these issues came up occasionally when builders wanted to build near highways.
