I live about 10 km from the airport, in the next village after Versoix. When landing the aircraft noise is generally not too bad, though as you approach the airport, in Genthod or Bellevue, directly under the flightpath, it can get noisy. When they take off towards the Northeast on 05, it's pretty noisy anywhere near the flightpath, at least as far as Coppet, Founex.
23 is used for landing about 60% of the time and 05 for takeoff about 40%, so we have about 60& landings here.
There are plenty of UN people living in the area and the main advantage is you're 10-15 minutes away from work or the airport.
