What to do about loud parties near ASU in Tempe

What to do about loud ASU parties in Tempe, AZ?

Look, we get it. If you live in Tempe, especially in the 85281 (downtown Tempe, mostly condos, apartments, bungalows) or 85282 (central Tempe, mostly ranch or large two-story rental homes that out-of-town students and fraternities move into) ZIP codes, you’re probably used to a certain amount of party noise from ASU students.

Hopefully the red SOLO cups don’t spill into your yard the day after a major rager, but parties in Tempe literally come with the territory. It’s a part of the charm of living in a college town, right?

If the house next to you is a rental, you might have a fresh batch of students come and go every year—to varying level of noise and disruption.

Short of putting Tempe Police Department’s non-emergency number in your contacts, what else can you do to keep your sanity when loud music and general college student rowdiness are something you expect multiple nights a week? (Even on weeknights, and especially before a big ASU football game?)

That’s where we come in!


If you’ve been researching or debating double pane windows for your home in Tempe, they can make a night and day difference in the amount of noise that can enter your home—especially so from nearby parties in your neighborhood. Not only can double pane windows drastically reduce college party noise, but they can help eliminate nearby traffic noise if you live on a main drag in Tempe, such as Rural, Mill, Apache, or University where people/rich college kids love to loudly rev their engines at all hours of the day and night.

They’re also a huge help with air traffic from Sky Harbor as well as the occasional helicopter fly-by!

Not only will upgrading your Tempe home to double pane windows seriously reduce outside noise, but there are serious energy efficiency benefits to doing so as well. Given how hot Tempe gets in the summer, double pane windows will dramatically lower your SRP bill. Over time, they’ll pay for themselves!

And given how hot the Tempe real estate market is, a simple switch to new double pane windows can have a dramatic effect on your home’s value. No matter what style of home or neighborhood you live in in Tempe, from its historic areas just off Mill Ave to the midcentury modern neighborhoods around Broadmoor, new double pane windows are a fantastic option if you’re looking to get your home up to spec before putting it on the market.
