Sorry about that, I meant to put downtown SF not SV (got mixed up). Downtown in the sense that it was the city'ish area with large buildings. I only had a chance to really drive through the SV area.
Walking in general sucks in my area if you want to talk about being practical. If you don't have a car on Long Island then you're going to be in a world of hurt in most cases. You often need to drive 10 or 20 minutes to get from point A to B.
But maybe I just live in a weird area. I've been walking for the sake of walking for years and there's a number of people I consistently run into. It's a tiny percent of people compared to the general population but they are there. I see them every day and it's a small mix of people.
I was just saying you can walk for the sake of walking just about anywhere if you really wanted to.
- TulliusCicero 8y agoSF is indeed one of the best places in the US for walking. And yet Munich still has like 5x the walking mode share. That's how huge the gap is with walkability between the two countries. Even the best US areas are chump change in comparison. > Walking in general sucks in my area if you want to talk about being practical. Right, and this is true nearly everywhere in the US. But it doesn't have to be. I see towns of a few thousand in Germany that are much more walkable than most US cities 100x their size. > I was just saying you can walk for the sake of walking just about anywhere if you really wanted to. For sure. People won't, though.
