[quote=sdrealtor]I dont get it BG? Last month you were imploring a poster to buy a house she was in escrow for on Hawley as the opportunity of a lifetime which had this “this type of constant “white” noise (whir of rubber and roar of traffic)” overlooking the 8 and now its I could never live with that.
Which one is it?[/quote]
Here is the thread where a home she just said she would never buy was an opportunity with “endless possibilities that she would not regret purchasing”.

February 24, 2011 at 3:55 PM #670790irondocParticipantHere’s some wacky advice, but well worth it in my mind. Two years ago my wife and I bought a house that is on a hill several blocks North of the 56 in Carmel Valley. My wife was paranoid about freeway noise, and we went back to the house several times during the day, and it was within my wife’s tolerable limits. This was in mid-October. After we moved in, we discovered that the worst noise is at night, when it is cold and the noise travels farther. Especially at this time of the year. Even though the traffic is lighter at night, the noise given off is greater. Visit the neighborhood of the house sometime around 11pm, park on the street near the house in question, turn off your engine. Roll down your windows or better yet get out. That will give you a sense of how bad it can get.

February 24, 2011 at 4:01 PM #670800xtinaParticipant@Scarlett: The place I am referring to was in Morada right up against the 15 freeway. When I approached the front door, and turned 180°F around, I could see the wall which was preventing me from running into the freeway. Way too close!
I agree with you that the exact location matters. Hard for anyone here to really judge noise based on a few facts.
I would be fine with a little light white noise. What I experienced looking into places that backed into Poway/Pomerado were potentially tolerable. What I saw backing into the 15 was intolerable.
