    I would just settle for sidewalks, where I live in the USA it’s just streets with no sidewalks everywhere. I used to live one mile from where I worked and I could barely even bike there because of crazy car drivers and nowhere to go if someone wasn’t paying attention. Rural America is going to be car dependent for a long, long time.

      Cities in America too. I’m currently in Charlotte, NC and the amount of times that the sidewalk just ends is a little bit insane.

      My daughter can’t walk the 1/4 mile to school because it’s on a major road with no sidewalk. So we drive her, every day. It’s bad for the environment and bad for her health.
