Anyone in NYC been hearing a lot more ambulances lately? I’m definitely more on edge when I hear them. I also am near a few hospitals so I get it from all angles.

You live near a hospital, are probably home more now than you have been in a while, and there’s less sound pollution than normal on streets = perceived increase

I’ve been wfh for a while and think the sirens are more frequent than they used to be. It could be lower traffic / city noise, and I am probably more sensitive to the noise now.🤷🏻‍♀️
