Worst of all worlds.

     Actually traveling between towns as I often do I've stopped on the highway 'cause some guy had hit a buck. He had his young daughters with him so he had disposed of the animal as soon as he managed to remove it from his grill. His big ass, shiny truck was most likely totaled. Anyway since we couldn't fit his family and mine into my car, my ex stayed with his kids at the truck while I drove him to the nearest payphone. 'Bout ten miles away.
     I live in town though and my friends or I have had to step in on 'domestic disputes' a couple of times. Living in an apartment or a triplex you are privy to some of your neighbors lives, no matter how annoying it is. I know it's a stupid thing to do, but I couldn't look in a mirror if I sat there and listened to a woman get beaten. So, there have been a couple of times when one of us had to step in. It's actually tended to work out better than it ever does on 'Cops'. Most guys realize that they've gone to far and either leave or settle down fast. This is a good thing.
Edit: I guess I forgot to mention that I usually live in lower-middle class neighborhoods and apartment complexes.
