Hear it in context
Notice where the phrase sounds natural.
I like to read in a quiet place where I can concentrate.
If I need to study for an important exam, I always look for a quiet place, like the library or my bedroom, so I can focus better.
Fix the pattern
One small grammar move makes it sound right.
Not: Let's find a place quiet.
Say: Let's find a quiet place.
The adjective goes before the noun — 'a quiet place', not 'a place quiet'.
Which sounds natural?
Tap the one a native speaker would say.
'A location characterised by an absence of noise' is comically formal; 'somewhere quiet' / 'a quiet place' is natural.
