There are several explanations for why Jeff is the only neighbor to notice the scream from the Thorwalds' apartment: it's shown to be late at night, so the fire escape couple, their upstairs neighbors, are already asleep, Miss Torso, their next door neighbor, is out with her guests, and Jeff remarks the next day that he watched their downstairs neighbor, Miss Lonelyhearts, drink herself to sleep. As for other neighbors who share the courtyard, the nosy artist Miss Hearing Aid would have removed her hearing device before going to bed, and of the ones who might still be awake, the composer is out drinking, and the newlyweds are "indisposed."
