Will a busy street deter renters?

I am looking at making my first rental property purchase. It’s a nice SF 3 bed, 1.5 bath, great school district and fenced back yard. The house over all is in good shape and needs little repairs. My question is that it is on a busy road and how badly will that deter renters?

    Check out a similar address/property (or the existing address on loopnet) they have traffic data. Should tell you how many cars pass by in the day.

    Solid core doors
    Sound blocking film
    Sound blocking caulk around windows
    Shrubs out front

    Should be enough to combat that question when potential renters ask☺️
