Zoning sounds terrible until your next door neighbor starts running an auto repair shop out of his garage.
"Mixed use" is also a thing. I know of plenty of examples here in the US, I have lived in one of them. New construction consisting of living space above retail is actually kinda trendy right now.
Also if you live above a greasy diner expect cockroaches
Why is a next-door auto repair neighbour bad? Do you not have laws on noise?
If you live above a proper restaurant expect no roaches ever, because they can't afford for literally a single roach to be seen in their restaurant by their customers.
You've never seen a cockroach in a restaurant? I'm guessing you live somewhere cold, because in warm places cockroaches are just a part of life. I'll still avoid anyplace I've seen a cockroach, but it's not like those places get shut down. They just need to up their pest control.
I have never seen a cockroach in a restaurant in my life. But then I live in Europe.
