Why do people live in a city if they hate noise? I love city noise. I find it eerie going to bed when it's silent. I love the comforting din of trolleys and buses going by, dogs barking, motors revving, people yelling, horns honking. I sleep best in summer when I can have my window wide open all night long. I get not being appreciative of one single extremely loud and disruptive noise, like a jackhammer right outside your window all hours of the day and night. But stuff like this? Who cares.

People in Chestnut Hill don’t really want the city experience… they think they do but what they really want is a very isolated and WASPy experience.

Not true. My parents moved us there bc they grew up in Mt. Airy. We lived in one of the rowhomes by the tennis courts that had 1 bathroom, old ass kitchen appliances and walls that would leak because of the storm drain. We did not have money at all nor did we move there to be more WASPy.
