A clear bird-care answer

Are conures too loud for apartments?

Many conures are too loud for noise-sensitive apartments. Green-cheeked conures are often quieter than sun or jenday conures, but no conure is silent, and contact calls can still upset neighbors.

Apartment fit depends on species, walls, neighbors, schedule, and your tolerance for daily calls.

What changes the conure parrot questions answer

Assume a conure will make loud daily calls. If your lease, neighbors, or household cannot handle that, choose a quieter species.

Species matters

Sun conures and jenday conures are famously loud. Green-cheeked conures can be more apartment-friendly but still call, alarm, and scream.

Behavior changes volume

Poor sleep, boredom, fear, attention patterns, hormones, and lack of routine can make any conure louder.

Plan before adoption

Listen to real recordings, talk to owners, and be honest about shared walls before meeting a bird you may fall for.

Best answer

Conures are not safe apartment picks for people who need quiet.
