In Japan, that happens in major cities.
When my father in-law showed up at his late sister in-law's house
to begin the process of selling it, the police were summoned in
minutes by neighbors who knew he was a stranger.
This in a high density section of Osaka.
When my wife and I showed up a few weeks later, my father in law made
a point of walking around the neighborhood with us; since the
neighbors had become accostumed to his presence, they could see that
we belonged.
