I'm an American in Munich, suburbs here are still walkable, bikeable, and often have a solid S-Bahn connection to the city center. In America, most suburbs are bad for walking, actively hostile to biking, and have either no public transit or nearly unusable public transit. The cities are usually not much better, either. Only a handful in the US have public transit that can even be called decent, let alone good.
