I wish! As someone who have lived in one of those concrete apartments from the communist era of my country, at least as they were made here, you do hear your neighbours. And if your neighbours have an active kid or a bigger breed dog that likes to jump a lot especially. Also every time they drop something on the fooor. I’m not very familiar with construction and material propeties, but there is something about concrete that carries vibrations easily. When a neighbour starts doing some renovations the power drill can be heard in half of the building (it was a nightmare for me, who worked night shifts at the time).
Don’t get me wrong, I’d still prefer that hell to being homeless.
They’re all made of concrete which means I don’t have to hear my upstairs neighbor stomping around at every hour of the day

Why is there always a neighbour that’s drilling? I live in a similar style building, but much smaller. There’s always someone who drills.
