Here it is not just upstairs, it is two floors up where sound transmits down, like footsteps, I have never even heard about such before, but this is really poorly made half concrete house, outer walls are actually brick.
Luckily earplugs are cheap, although resident living above this box swipes floor after showering and that is louder than my washing machine when I'm wearing ear plugs!
There is only one problem in this world, people don't think enough.
I mean, I'm walking on my toes, I have put piece of weather stripping to cabinet doors and bathroom door so they close silently without any clunk, I'm not throwing stuff to sink, I place them without making a sound, just because I think how some other's point of view would be, how they would experience sound of my planned action. Certainly it is not much work for me to do that all.
My problem though is AS, which is not very helpful in noise department, every sound is equal and not prioritized at all, whatever there is a sound I pick it up as most important signal, if there is 10 sounds I pick all 10 at once at equal importance, make sequence of clunks and I can tell how many there was and were them equal distance apart in time and in physical distance as well as how far sound was produced.
You can perhaps imagine how little it takes to overload this computing unit with a sounds
However landlord is excellent and there are clear rules, after certain time no sound should be emitted that is heard in other apartment. So one above me has to leave because not following rules.
I do have a house too, but it has mold/mushroom thing, so it is not possible to live there as it is health hazard. Can't even sell that, life can be quite annoying at times.
