  Like people who move next door to a live music venue and complain about the noise.

    Or ones who move in next to a pig farm and complain about the smell

    They are right, though. Noise pollution is real and harmful. If the venue can’t soundproof its walls then it should close.

      Noise pollution is harmful, but subject to an inverse-square law with regard to distance and not a big issue for people whose schedules are compatible with the venue’s hours. Seems to me who was there first should win that contest in most cases.

        The only aspect which should be taken into consideration is noise ordinance laws, honestly. If the venue exceeds them, they’re clearly at fault.

      Fun fact: where i live if you want to build residential next to an existing live venue, soundproofing is your problem.
