What cultural aspects set us apart from other countries?

In Tasmania, police staffing can vary depending on the size of the town and the specific police station. Generally, larger city stations have 24-hour staffing, while smaller towns may not have officers on-site at all times overnight. In many small towns, there might be one officer on duty who can respond to emergencies, but the station itself may not be staffed or open to the public during late hours. Often, in smaller areas, officers may be required to patrol the surrounding regions or respond to calls from home. For your fiction, it might be realistic to depict a small town where the police station is locked overnight, but there is still an officer available to respond to emergencies if needed.
