I recently had all the doors and windows in my house replaced and that made a huge difference to ambient noise.
Then I went round outside and jammed insulation into every gap I could find and I am now part way though sealing everything up with coverplates.
I can't say or at least I can't quantify how much difference it makes, but my girlfriend has commented a few times on how quiet it is and there is a definite difference in the noise from, say, a truck in the street outside.
