If I'm not smoking inside, I'll sometimes go out to the back porch. Every once in a while the above ground portion of the Orange line T goes by as it's only a few blocks away. If it's early afternoon, the next door neighbor's kids are out and usually howling and creating a ruckus. I think they run a day care of some sort, as there are always a billion kids out and about.
Other than that, the normal city sounds apply. Although this apartment is on a one way circle in a better part of the city than the last one, which was just bordering on lower income housing and on a somewhat heavily travelled road. It's nice being able to sleep at night without hearing fart can equipped civics blasting by at 3 in the morning.
I miss living in Westchester county, NY as a kid. My parents built that house, and we were in the middle of the woods. In fact, the closest neighbors we had up the hill have recently sold their land and it's now home to a Wolf Conservation Center. It would have been interesting to live there if the program was there back then as I spent a lot of time in the woods behind and around the house.
