I've never been able to afford anything else
I truly am sorry to hear that. But the unfortunately all to common practice of shitty land lords building shitty buildings for quick money should (hopefully) not be what we are aiming for in the future. Landlords were able to get away with far too much for far too long because everyone wasn't connected and able to video everything. Hopefully, again, it changes now
I don't have any of the problems mentioned by the first commenter and I live in a relatively cheap apartment. I don't even hear the people in the other room in my own apartment if I have doors and windows closed. That's better than some houses I've been to and lived in.
How old is your building? Is it "stick-built" (wood frame construction) or something else? Are the walls plaster or drywall? Older construction tends to have quieter walls (but louder floors, in my experience).
At the latest it's from 1975 (the elevator is from '73 I think). Concrete walls would be my guess but I'm not 100% sure.
