Wow. I've travelled to many countries and lived in a few, but I've never been somewhere without sidewalks. I looked at that street view and thought: "that's weird, grassy sidewalks". I had to pan 360 degrees a few times to realise it was people's front gardens, not public space. It feels very alien to me.

Old lots are grandfathered in, I think, but any new development has to also provide a sidewalk. I suspect it's that way most places, and that's why you find so few without sidewalks. They do exist, though.
