If there’s heavy traffic in your city and private cars are still preferable to public transport, your infrastructure is shit and you should go pester your politicians about it

What do I do if the public transit is pretty good and the city is walkable, but all the jobs are in office parks 40 minutes out of town?

Pester your politicians that they forgot a part of the walkable city. Either a walkable workplace or work from home.

So the city isn’t walkable, then

Define walkable.
I can walk to literally everything I need in my daily life except my job, and the share of residents lucky enough to work in the city can walk or bike to those too. My city scores incredibly high in both walk and bike scores; this drives real estate prices up, which drives employers to the suburbs, and—wouldn’t you know it!—the cheapest places to build office parks are situated away from the commuter transit.

That’s not walkable. The definition is not that difficult
