    It’s really unfortunate that one of the most dangerous areas in the province is in such close proximity to the airport.

    It’s pretty common from what I’ve seen, especially large international airports. Like that In N Out that’s shuttering an Oakland store for the first time in their history. The area around LAX is pretty bad as well.

      It’s not a coincidence, nobody wants to live near an airport let alone an international one, the noise level is insane. My grandparent’s house is less than a half mile from the edge of one, and even with soundproofing, the dishes still set to rattling far too often. The airport was basically forced to buy out like half the neighborhood because it was so bad.
