I've had several front wheels with 20 spokes for city riding and enjoyed them without many problems. Maybe I broke a spoke or two, but only after lots of use. That said, the only wheels I've ever totally destroyed were both 20h fronts, both in endover crashes. They look cool, but yeah, don't crash.
