Really comes down to having respect for other people. Most people do. Some don't.

The blurry lines are the perception of legal levels which some people find bothersome and others don't. I think there is far more suburban distress caused by people who feel they should not have to hear their neighbors at all than those that have a give and take attitude. If you live in the suburbs then expect some noise.
My neighbors and their teenage kids sometimes have fairly loud parties that can go to 3am ( one on a wednesday night last week). I have never contemplated calling the police- good on them for living life to the full. At the same time I don't hesitate to hold back on the volume levels of my own music when I feel like it , but usually not after 10 30 on a weeknight or 12am on a weekend, but as I am tolerant of my neighbors they are tolerant of me and I do not live in fear of the neighbors, if I lose myself in the music
