    Same thing with race tracks like Laguna. Population creep has started to come closer to tracks, now lots of race tracks have had to implement noise rules and often it’s still not enough to stop complaints.

      I don’t get it.

      It’s one thing if an airport, or a race track, or whatever, builds next to a neighborhood.

      It’s another thing if a neighborhood moved in next to an airport. Like, wtf, you built this house and didn’t account for the fact that there’s a goddamn airport right there???
