I'm lucky enough to have a cul-de-sac and the entire area has side walks and bike lanes. My 7th grader bikes a mile to school each day and my 5th grader will start this year. Only time I have to drive them is if there is rain. Its really an awesome perk to living in the suburbs, and my kids being able to just say "Hey. I'm going for a bike ride" and me not having to worry is a massive life upgrade for everyone involved.
