Translations:Quiet Hours/12/en

There are limits worth keeping in mind. Ongoing harassment from a neighbour, threats, or entry into a home without permission are separate matters from a noise dispute and may warrant involving a landlord, building management, or, in serious cases, emergency services. Conversely, a resident who is repeatedly the subject of complaints may face tenancy consequences, and ignoring formal notices tends to accelerate that process.

| Reality=Reality Check: quiet hours are frequently framed as either trivial or as an instrument of surveillance, and neither framing holds up well. Most complaints originate from people who are simply trying to sleep before work, not from hostility toward a household or its guests.
