My guess is it's NOT normal because I have that problem, and no one else I know does. When I swallow there is a sort of popping/crunching sound in my ears that only I can hear.
I do know that I also happen to have TMJ, and none of these symptoms began to occur until my wisdom teeth were left impacted too long. The TMJ symptoms started, as well as the ear popping. Even a year after the extractions these problems continue.
My guess is that the TMJ and ear popping are related somehow. When I mention it to doctors or dentists they tend to brush it off.

You can move to a quiet location, wear ear plugs or noise canceling ear phones, or do something pro active to stop the noise outside. Good luck with this!
