How often do you hear police sirens?

Cause I just moved into Norwich city centre and there's a police car with sirens on passing by my window like twice a day... I've only been here for a week though, so I don't know if it's always like this...

Do you hear them often where you live?

When I'm at home, very rarely.
At school, quite often since there's a police station nearby.
When I'm in Birmingham, allll the time haha
I live in a white area, so not that often
i live right by the prison in preston and near a main road so tend to hear either an ambulance or police siren every couple of days
Hardly ever in Surrey but when I'm in London occasionally

Aaaaall the time :unimpressed:
Recently I don't know what happened I would say the passed couple of years, we've heard a lot more police and ambulance sirens for some reason. We live in a good area as well so?!?
A daily occurance
Cause eaat london is full with crime :frown:
All the time because I stay across the road from my local police station and a main road so there's always police and ambulance sirens going off.

I never hear them. Tbh I never hear anything in this neighbourhood... it's too quiet.
I live in London and I hear sirens all the time. Especially at night. I swear I hear like 7 sirens in one night.

All the time. Even helicopters and all. (Though that could be cause a lot of police searches happen here in N.I?)
quite alot actaully, and helicopters every now and again lol.
After a while though, I think you gone deaf to them..
I hear police siren right now :laugh: and a helicopter too :teehee: As I live almost in Central London, I hear a lot of sirens :colone:
I hear them quite often. I think they shouldn't sound the police alarms until the police car is relatively close to its destination- they cause unnecessary noise.
