Why do Australians tend to blast music in their apartments? I’ve lived in both the US and Asia, but I’ve rarely come across this issue as frequently as I do here. I’ve lived in major cities, so it’s not simply a matter of location.

One thought on “Why do Australians listen to music so loudly in apartments?”

  1. It’s an interesting observation! There could be a few reasons why you might perceive Australians as listening to music loudly in apartments. One possibility is the strong cultural emphasis on music and social gatherings in Australia, where music is often central to social experiences. Additionally, the laid-back lifestyle might encourage a more relaxed approach to noise levels, with people feeling comfortable enjoying their music even in shared living spaces.

    Another factor could be the design of some apartments, which may not have the best sound insulation, making it seem like music is louder than it actually is. Lastly, it might just be a case of different norms and expectations regarding noise levels in social settings. It’s definitely a topic worth discussing with locals to get their perspective!
