Map shows road and aviation noise in the Houston area

HOUSTON (KTRK) -- Are you thinking of moving? Looking for a quiet neighborhood? You may want to consider viewing a road noise map of the Houston area.

It shows not just road noise, but aviation noise as well. It appears that airplanes, not cars, make a bigger impact on volume.

The star formation on the map around Bush Airport shows the approach and departure angles of the runways.

You can also see huge hotspots around other airports like Hobby, Houston Executive Airport near Katy, Ellington Field and Sugar Land Regional Airport.
