Well, fire companies often have sirens that go off every time there is a call.
If you live in NYC naturally you don't have such a thing, but it's quite normal elsewhere.
Once a week doesn't seem too bad when you figure 24/7 a fire call might go out and the Siren sounds. Then again, most people who live near it are so used to it (since the firehouses are generally there long before any development) they never wake up. I wouldn't know, because I have to be awake everytime it goes off
