  1. A multilevel logistic regression model was estimated after excluding individuals with missing values for road traffic noise variables. This model 1 is the basic model estimated between individual/neighborhood variables and annoyance due to road traffic. The comparable models estimated in the other samples of smaller size yielded similar results and are not shown in Tables.
