Surely living in suburbia does come with noise and most residents would know and accept this.
People live next door to continually barking dogs, chooks/roosters, hoons doing burnouts in their streets, kids playing and yelling in their pools/yards, motorbikes being ridden, loud music being played, etc. The list goes on.
