(Xinhua)When 72-year-old Shi Jikun opened his windows at home in Yuxi, southwest China's Yunnan Province, he used to hear the repeated thud of balls and blowing of whistles from an indoor sports venue near his residential community.
"During the day, I didn't dare open the windows," Shi said, recalling years when the noise disrupted his daily routine.
The sports venue has since undergone two rounds of soundproofing. Sound-absorbing materials were installed on its walls, while double-glazed soundproof windows were fitted along the side facing the residential area.
The noise has eased. "The neighborhood is quiet now, making everyday life much more comfortable," Shi noted.
Shi's experience is part of a broader move underway across China to tackle one of the less obvious costs of urbanization: the growing amount of noise packed into increasingly dense neighborhoods.
As cities expand, the likes of homes, roads, businesses, construction sites and recreational spaces are often crammed together. China has, notably, been testing a neighborhood-level response to this challenge via the development of "quiet communities," combining physical upgrades with local management and mediation.
This initiative was launched as a national pilot project in May 2023. By the end of 2025, a total of 3,272 quiet communities had been built nationwide, benefiting more than 2.4 million households, according to the Ministry of Ecology and Environment.
This approach now also has a stronger legal footing. On Saturday, China's Ecological and Environmental Code came into force, with a dedicated section on noise pollution prevention and control.
The scale of the problem is reflected in noise complaints. In 2025, cities at the prefecture level and above received about 6.83 million noise-related complaints, with social-life noise accounting for 73.2 percent.
Noise from neighbors, equipment malfunctions and disturbances from square dancing, a popular group exercise in China often held by middle-aged and older residents in public spaces, were among the most common issues raised.
China's quiet-community program is designed to address such problems before they become recurring disputes. "Quiet communities do not mean that there should be no sound," said Lu Lu, deputy head of the noise management division at the Ministry of Ecology and Environment.
The goal, Lu said, is to create a comfortable and harmonious living environment while balancing everyday activity with residents' need for quiet.
The solutions vary from place to place. In south China's Shenzhen, some newly built residential communities are incorporating noise control at the planning and design stage. Measures include low-noise pavements, vegetation buffers, separated pedestrian and vehicle routes, and automatic noise-monitoring equipment.
Older communities are using renovation projects to address noise concerns. In Xiaoshan District in east China's Hangzhou, Huiyu garden community replaced aging elevators and repaired drainage grates and other public facilities as part of its quiet-community program.
But physical upgrades alone cannot settle conflicts between neighbors.
At Fenglin Shunhe community in Weihai, eastern China's Shandong Province, residents, property managers, community officials and square-dancing groups agreed to end dancing at 8:30 p.m. The main lights in the square switch off at that time, signaling that it is time for the dancers to leave.
The key is to respond quickly to complaints and give residents and activity groups a way to negotiate solutions, said Jiang Chunyan, head of the neighborhood committee.
In another community in Shenzhen, property managers have gone further by treating renovation noise as a process to be managed proactively rather than a problem to be addressed after complaints arise.
Renovation work is divided into nine stages and mapped on a visual noise-management chart. Property managers use the chart to carry out targeted inspections as work progresses. Contractors are also required to work only during designated hours and under fully enclosed conditions.
The program still faces gaps in terms of regional coverage and long-term maintenance. Quiet communities remain concentrated in a few cities, while older neighborhoods and parts of central and western China have fewer projects. Some communities also face difficulties maintaining noise-control measures after initial upgrades are completed.
The Ministry of Ecology and Environment plans to incorporate quiet-community development into China's noise pollution prevention and control work for the 2026-2030 period. It has called for regular inspections, dynamic monitoring and follow-up visits to ensure that measures remain effective.
Zheng Shanshan, an official responsible for ecological affairs in Hangzhou's Xiangfu Subdistrict, said the next step should extend noise management from individual communities to larger areas through tools such as sound-environment maps.
"Quiet communities are only a starting point," Zheng said. "We hope to create more quiet spaces across the city."

二 |          据报道，南西在中国天津出生，祖籍山东，在新西兰生活了25年，拥有古代历史学（专攻埃及学）博士学位。         2017年，南西加入绿党，于2020年首次参与新西兰大选（党内排名17位），竞选Pakuranga选区的国会议员。2023年，南西参与了Epsom选区的国会议员竞选，党内的排名为16位。         在正式成为绿党国会议员前，他在绿党担任了3年联合政策主管（policy co-convenor），并于2023年7月被选任为绿党的联合党主席（party co-convenor）。

三 |          谈到为何加入绿党，他表示是绿党的核心价值观深深吸引了他。         "绿党是非常有人情味的政党，是一个非常以人为本的政党，" 他说。"我们把基层和人民放在第一位，把政治放在第二位，我们关心民众，以及我们与大家的关系。"          成为绿党华人国会议员，南西表示他的加入将大大增强绿党党团的多样性。         "绿党看到我所能带来的，作为能说流利中文的华人，我能为（党团）的讨论带来不一样的视角，我能带来不一样的社区。"          作为本届国会反对党的唯一华人议员，南西力图扩大华人在议会中的发言权。         "我将开始以更好的方式与华社进行沟通，华社部分人可能对绿党不熟悉，（但）这是在华社传达我们的价值观的好机会。"          与此同时，南西还表示他计划更多支持华社的基层民众，并希望让国会听到来自基层的声音。         "他们是绿党希望与之互动的，我们希望在国家的层面，放大他们的声音，" 他表示。"我是指亚洲超市的工人们，华社有很多人在餐饮、零售和清洁等服务行业。还有华社的彩虹社区、残障社区，他们的声音在哪里？我非常愿意为这些人寻求最佳的方案。"          绿党联合党魁Marama Davidson为南西成为国会首位绿党华人国会议员感到自豪。         她说："Lawrence会成为一名出色的国会议员，他会让新西兰以及我们了不起的华人社区感到自豪。"          南西正式进入国会对华社来说也是一个重要的里程碑，这标志着首次有3名华人议员进入国会。

四 | 除了南西，国会另外两位华人议员为国家党的陆楠（Nancy Lu）和张隽浩（Carlos Cheung）。         祝贺南西！          原文链接          相关阅读：          新西兰新政府正式成立！国家党有2名华人议员！史上首次！          揭秘！走进新西兰国会！80后华人女议员深度专访：无惧挫折，不忘初衷          国家党80后华人角逐奥克兰选区：不言口号，用行动说话          注：凡引用、摘录或转自其他媒体的作品， 本网对其观点、真实性和知识产权恕不负责。
