Trend Talk - 4Q21

Noise comments received from neighbors in October – December 2021 (4Q21) reflect these trends: 

  • Compared to October – December 2020 (4Q2020), a year-over-year (YOY) increase both in the number of noise comments received and the number of distinct households filing comments. Exactly 100 more comments were filed year-over-year from 10 additional distinct households. 
  • Breaking out the above data further, 121 (or 84%) of the 144 comments filed during 4Q21 were geographically concentrated in the city of Colton, where 8 distinct households filed comments for the quarter.
  • In comparison to July – September 2021 (3Q21), there was an increase both in noise comments received and distinct households filing between the two consecutive quarters (QOQ). There were 120 additional comments and 9 more distinct households filing comments. 

The YOY and QOQ increases are attributed to:  

  • Growth in airport and aircraft operations at SBD, 
  • Growth in concerns filed by individual households, 
  • Engaged and concerned community members seeking information about aircraft operations, and 
  • Ongoing outreach to neighbors to encourage feedback via the Good Neighbor Program.  

SBD staff make every effort to connect with airport neighbors who submit a noise comment, specify that they would like a response, and provide their contact information. Please contact us online or by phone:   

  • Submit a comment online here, or 
  • Call the Community Response Line 909-382-4225. 

Your comment will become part of the next Good Neighbor Program quarterly report. We encourage you to visit our website to learn more.
