Just go with one anywhere, including urban and suburban environments.

It’s a lot of wear and tear on the trucks and equipment. A friend of mine had snow plowing contracts in NOVA for many years. When he first got into it I used to ride with him sometimes and do the sidewalks with a snow blower, shovel out hard to get to areas, and keep on the lookout for hidden curbs and abutments. Just riding in the truck with the backing up, plowing forward, trying not to hit cars on the streets, etc. can be quite stressful.
