What county, suburban area or medium-size city have you lived in that has a strict noise policy against amplified music (boom cars, loud parties and personal sound systems) and enforces it? Particularly interested in places that don't require a complainant to sign a formal complaint but where the police actually enforce the ordinance. Any places that you know of like this will be helpful.
college towns often have a zealous anti-noise policy at least when they can enforce it. A friend living in Amherst, MA got a ticket for having her music too loud at noon time!
