Having experienced extended exposure to the kind of low-frequency noise emitted by wind farms and its effect on psychological health, I feel it is not at all hyperbole to call it "torture."

I'm afraid that even in most urban areas, the low-frequency noise would stand out from typical background noise and have noticeable health effects on the community.

There is a growing literature on the health effects of low-frequency noise, and also on (mostly losing) battles of communities against nearby wind farms.
