Comment on anon discusses car dependence
teletext@reddthat.com 13 hours agoThis sounds like a guy who is upset that he doesn’t live in a walkable city so he comes up reasons why it’s bad to live in one but due to lack of walkability experience just fucks the arguments and then looks stupid.

some people don’t like having overpriced housing costs that don’t include even a quarter acer of land

I don’t think there’s a significant correlation between walkable cities and higher real estate prices. There are plenty of unwalkable cities with high real estate prices and vice versa. That’s more a product of a large number of factors, from average income to density to quality of education and beyond. Walkability could be one of those, but I am doubtful it is a primary one, at least in the US.

Rent is 300/mo/2bd here. The grocier and 2 markets are 5 minutes by bike. You can park within a few feet of your destination because of how dense parking is. This is the 8th city I’ve stayed in where this is true.
