I am not sure what the examples purport to show.
Suburbs are hardly communities in any meaningful
sense, at least in modern Western societies. (The Sadr
City near Baghdad is more so, and it faces the issue
of defense.) The first-century Christians were only a
community in the making, and lacked any mechanisms for
organized self-defense, which doesn't mean that they
had no need for it.
