Are you asking about any first world country, or about random third world countries?
In rich countries the norm is all active landfills are properly maintained. There are a few bad apples that are caught once in a while, and a number of long abandoned landfills that cause problems, but for the most part a landfill in any first world country is not an environmental disaster.
In poor countries people just toss things wherever with no concern.
