Yep. Lots of things are not allowed, but that means very little most of time for a whole bunch of reasons.
I can't speak for other parts but around here it can be bad but not war zone bad. I'm close to a big park - which is a relatively safe place to light them off I suppose.
Gunshots around here are now a rarity. So that much is better. Even down where I rent the garage is not as often as it used to be.
