Reply to comment by allumers in Does anyone know of apartment complexes in Crystal City/Pentagon Row that have no carpeting in the bedroom? by crocodile_tears_

Agree. It has to do with cutting down noise from the bedrooms above/below you. Its one thing to have floor noise in the living spaces, but to have it in the sleeping space is too much. Most likely a VA building code for apartments.

not in Crystal City or Pentagon Row but I am in an apartment in Arlington and there's no carpet anywhere in my place. I sure hope no one reports it for being out of code 😂
