I have some that are newer, but they were poorly insulated in the floors so a downstairs tenant can hear the upstairs tenant close their refrigerator, have a phone conversation, or make babies.

If there were  tiny baby in the mix , I seem to recall there could be protections for the baby not to count as an occupant?  

Please note I am reading from a kindle as that is the most convenient for me in terms of portability and being teething baby proof.
