I am so lucky that where I currently live is very well insulated for sound. However, I struggle to keep up with the rent.

It is characteristic of folks who are scent-sensitive to be unusually sensitive to odors. I can smell neighbor's dryer vents when they use perfumed sheets from inside my unit, and sometimes even smell perfumes in cars driving by! It is truly a curse.
