In California, we lived in a "buffer" neighborhood, located between a pretty bad area, and an extremely wealthy area. I used to hear gunshots pretty regularly. At first, I would get gunned up just in case. Later, I just kept on sleeping or watching TV, or whatever I was doing. It was just too common to give it much attention anymore. Also, I lived a 10 minute walk from the Rose Bowl, so whenever there was an event there, it was followed by a fireworks show.
