I toured a house on Long Island on Monday, gave the offer 30 mins after we left and they accepted the next day. I grew up in nyc around the noise and played on the streets ( literally) would it be any different living on a double yellow street? The driveway is long enough for 8 suvs.

    Will living on a double yellow street bother me?

    1. We don’t know you and what bothers you, so there is no way for Reddit to answer this question!

      You can go visit in the morning/evening if that’s when you’re concerned about the noise. Spend some time in the area and see how noisy it actually is.

      As a fellow NYer: what is a double yellow street? Do you just mean “not one way”? Is this code for a multi-lane road, high traffic road, or fast road?

      What’s a “double yellow” street? If you’re talking about moving from the hustle and bustle of the city to a more suburban or rural area, I think it just depends on being willing to trade off walkability (usually the biggest pro for urban residences) in favor of space, less noise, potentially less trash/pollution, etc.
