Why Do Some People Prefer Quiet Places to Loud Ones?

Some people like quiet places because they feel calm and safe there. Imagine a loud park with music, kids laughing, and dogs barking, it might feel exciting to some, but to others, it feels like chaos. Quiet places, like a library or a forest, are peaceful and help them think clearly. It's like having your own quiet island in the middle of all the noise.
