Community Noise Equivalent Level (CNEL) is a weighted average of noise level over time.[1] It is used to compare the noisiness of neighborhoods. CNEL is frequently used in regulations of airport noise impact on the surrounding community.[2][3] A CNEL exceeding 65db is generally considered unacceptable for a residential neighborhood.
