It depends on the location. There are plenty of city intersections where 4-way stops are completely appropriate, and a roundabout would be impossible because it would have a much bigger footprint (and would block trucks and emergency vehicles).

Some places use virtual roundabouts, where the roundabout part is simply a small painted circle on the road. Emergency vehicles can drive straight over it

There's also formed roundabouts where most of it is raised but only by a small amount, so that emergency vehicles with large tires can drive straight over it but still discourages light vehicles from doing the same.
