No.

Some are quieter than others.....

[joyfull]

and whilst some may be quieter than others this doesn't mean any breed is quieter than another breed. personally I would say if you have neighbours than don't get a cockerel - in summer they can start crowing at 3.30 in the morning and the sound can carry a long way.

i'd like to say sod the neighbours ..... they are a couple of moaning ...... so and so,sos
i was putting some tin sheets on a shed once at about 11am they both came out and asked DO YOU HAVE TO DO THAT NOW..... well i have my fun some days building up my old bsa he he he 

[joyfull]

if they complain to the council then the council can make you get rid of the cockerel. Besides you do not need a cockerel when keeping hens plus crowing at 3.30 in the morning is not an acceptable noise to most people.

From the mental picture you're building up, I'm begin to see why.

wot do you mean by that....
you try living next door to them.. even when just cutting my lawn or the hedge they moan.
i've been here 28 years and never got wrong with anyone on our street. they have been here 3years and nobody around here will pass the time of day with them

I think your question is answered anyway! 

I had horrible neighbours once who were deliberately noisy at 6 every morning to wind me up.  I did the opposite of what I really wanted to do (move) and I bought them nice gifts instead.  What a difference! They coudn't do enough for me after that!!!

Charm is a clever tactic - some eggs for them given with a smile?

Just wondering why you want a cockerel? Not that there is anything wrong with that!

i just like the look of most cockerels... and have enough room for one.
so i thought i would re-home one.
but that may not be possible...... as mentioned above

My nearest neighbours are a mile away and i can hear their cockerel here.

 But i dont complain,  they might start to moan about my 10
