Well in my city you probably would not see many people walking around in their swimsuits.
In the beach towns, yes it is quite normal, all I can say wish I had the figure to wear it.
I must admit the new fashions are great today, and I wish I was young again, but I have to say those low jeans and tops,where the bellies are showing are great on those who have the figure for it, but lets face it some of the young girls today are built like brick houses, and the fat hanging out kinda looks awful.
I suppose they are only young, and maybe they donot have the perfect figure and just want to be like the rest of them, cannot blame them for that.
