One example - Some Prime Minister was visiting my home town and I was just trying to get home from the airport.

A lot of security... and not even the president.
It'll be a lot more than the square. I would guess that most of the main streets north of 466 will be blocked off for a while. If you live on on of the streets off of one of the main roads, you may have to show ID in order to get to get home.

This is pretty typical of presidential visits. After Kennedy, Ford and Reagan, the secret service goes well overboard and who could blame them.
