Given the noise of the JSF, I can't see anyone except the desparate Scots accepting it in their back yards.
Two points:

1 - F-35C is no louder than an F-18/GR4 and you assume that the norm will be for F-35C to conduct an afterburning take-off which it may not need to do for routine training. Don't assume to know these things when you don't (I refer you to the term Sciolist)

2 - Don't be so damned prejudiced! Your inference that Scots are desperate and more likely to 'put up' with environmental noise through desperation alone is bordering on racist.

Parkitup is wiser than you give him/her credit for.
