Noise pollution is another prevalent issue on Manhattan Avenue, with a total of 578 noise-related complaints. Residents are continually subjected to a cacophony of sounds from both commercial and residential sources, with loud music or parties (436 complaints) being the primary culprit. The constant din makes it difficult to enjoy a peaceful environment, especially during late-night hours.
