I live about 15 miles almost due north of a decent sized airport with regularly scheduled passenger jet service. I don’t ever hear them unless there’s bad weather or turbulence. The landing pattern gets changed and they descend overhead at those times. Otherwise, I’d never know it’s there as far as jet noise.

Better to hear descent than takeoff, though. When I first came to the area, I flew out for business several times a week and rented an apartment near that same airport for convenience. Those turbines spooling up could rattle the windows at times, but after a few months it didn’t really even register anymore, just normal background noise.
