My marigold plants are growing. I heard that pinching the buds until Autumn will allow them to grow without killing the plant. Is this true?

Thr first thing I would do is talk with your neighbors. Maybe take some fresh flowers as a "welcoming gift" since they are new to the neighborhood. Bring up your concern and you never know, you might be invited to join their get togethers!
Evergreens and other natural noise absorbers would be best.
I don't think there really is anyway to not hear it. Our backyard neighbors have an above ground pool and you can hear everything despite a really tall fence. Their kids are now grownup and graduated or going to college, so it is rarely used now. They tried to keep it down, but it echoes off everything and they apologized many times. We just took it as part of being in a neighborhood and enjoyed the happy sounds coming from the kids.
Introduce yourself. Invite them over for a backyard party and they'll do the same. That's what being in a neighborhood is all about. Otherwise, look elsewhere for a home.
