    I'd assume older buildings to be better on noise than a modern build.

      My building is relatively new, concrete and steel construction, and my neighbor could take up chainsaw sculptures and I wouldn't know.

      Those wooden 5-over-1s where the wood is actually sawdust and oil though? Yeah those let a lot of noise through.

      In the handful of concrete buildings I've lived in both old and new they've all been the same. Nothing super-new though. Maybe the newest I've lived in was built 15 years ago or so.

      they literally don't, this is 90% capitalism's fault, 10% "the way they used to build 'em substantially reduced the life expectancy of everyone involved", depending on the 'em in question
