My Pekin drake is very quite, the Pekin hens however can be loud at times. Like when they are happy to see you, hungry or letting you know that they don't like something. Turbo my female for no reason that I can figure just started to sound the alarm the other evening for about 20 minutes. Lol still sure why did that!

Are they loud enough for the neighbors to hear? (quieter than dogs)

Hey so my pekin duck was loud that the neighbors 200 feet away heard her with the windows open

My Cayuga duck was soo loud and quacked alot more!
Muscovies are near silent

And i couldnt hear any of drakes even from my own open window 50 feet away!

The good thing was as soon as it was dark all the ducks were settled in the coop and never made a single peep all night till i let them out.

My chickens are louder than the drakes and almost as loud as the ducks

I have A Muscovy drake laying beside me in the house he is very quiet and good tempered

lol, mine that I was supposed to get was too aggressive. His owners never handle any of their chickens, muscovies, or goats

I would rather hear ducks quacking than dogs barking.

View attachment 1573803 Sorry he looks so ratty he needs to get his molt on. lol

He looks pretty content on his pillow!

I’m not an expert on ducks, but I’m going to check the state ordinances for owning some ducks in NY.
I just love them!

Check local town/city laws too. Around here they can vary quite a bit.

In my experience--not runners or Pekings. The khaki is pretty quiet.
