I live in a condo with people on either side, above and below me. My pins are in a fully enclosed and carpeted patio area. It used to be an outdoor patio that was walled off with large windows frames long before I bought it (I have nice shades though that keep the pins out of direct sunlight). It's a very quiet part of the condo complex too, so I have been pretty concerned about the noise. There is a "quiet time" rule imposed by the HOA after 9pm so I've never really played them past that time. So far I haven't had any complaints from neighbors, or any comments at all in passing either. I've thought about asking but didn't want to call any attention to it on purpose.
I don't want to be that rude neighbor, but I'm almost tempted to just play later at night just to see if someone says something. I live alone so I haven't been to see what it might sound like while playing from outside. I have remember to try that the next time I have people over.
