J frame is my choice to solve most suburban problems

Yes, things are very different today than the 70s or 80s.

I personally never leave my house at less than condition yellow, and because I live in suburbia (more rural than urban), I feel completely at ease with my 6-shot Colt Agent that is approaching 40 years of age. If I make a poor decision that puts me in a situation where 5(6) rounds of standard-pressure 38 Special don't do the trick, then I am really up the proverbial creek with no paddle and a rapidly sinking canoe...

Urban carry is more often than not my Glock 19 and off the beaten path, a Glock 22.

No one in my family goes anywhere without some means of self-protection anymore. Things started to get real weird with the China-flu and frankly I've never felt the same again about people and out-in-public in general.
