A study conducted in Japan aimed to understand how childcare facilities should coexist with the local community. The researchers used a sound survey, demographic survey, and logistic regression analysis to study residents' noise awareness in various areas. They found that higher land prices led to lower approval of new childcare facilities. The study also revealed that those more sensitive to noise and less willing to participate in public events at childcare facilities were more significantly opposed to the establishment of new facilities.
