Ah yes, the inevitable "fuck you boomer move to the burbs" person who pops up in every thread where someone makes a reasonable quality of life complaint.

Cities are noisy. Everyone knows this. That doesn't mean that every noise is reasonable or necessary and it does not mean that people should be berated for trying to address it.

I know you're just being difficult and this is pointless but .. living under the EL (which I've done as well) is not the same as what OP is describing. Living under the EL was no big deal.

What op describes sounds fucking terrible. It's not necessary traffic beeping that happens in the city, it's not an expected train rumbling thru, it's sporadic shrill bursts of unnecessary noise...literally designed to be shrill and piercing and grab your attention.

Yeah, you. And if you already do, then don't complain about city life because you don't live in the city

LiViNg UnDeR ThE fUcKiNg eL isn't the flex you think it is. I lived under the EL for yrs and it never ever bothered me. Was barely conscious of it.
