When I was living in Singapore, all the rich people were on the higher floors where you don't hear the road anyway. Or they had their own villa with garden. Back then, noise pollution was considered mostly a poor people issue. Glad to see that they are now finally getting an upgrade, too :)

I live on one of the higher floors (30+) and you can definitely still hear the road from here. Granted, I'm next to a highway...
How often does the train go by?

So often you won’t even notice it.
