Over here its very much part of the culture. in the summer they are everywhere.
There is one outside my daughter's school that's there every day of the year rain shine or snow.

In Scotland they had Ice cream wars. the vendors were selling a lot more than just Ice Cream..

We have one that's a yellow van. We hear or see it at least once a week, but we do live by a park.

We had a beat up truck that came around last summer, but he could not come to our side of the street because of a Scottsdale law aimed at preventing those type sales (Phoenix is on the other side). Drove my kids crazy seeing him always turn and never come to our side! I think I read (or saw a news story) last year stating that the law was repealed, but have seen nothing so far this year.

Have a Ice Cream man and a company called Swans here in Missouri they sell ice cream,meats, frozen foods. good stuff.

We have them too (Schwans). My parents bought from them when I was a kid in Ohio (1980s) and we still buy from them in VA now. It's different from the "ice cream man" who drive around with the songs playing though.
