Only one pix was taken during winter. No pix of commuters during precipitation. No pix were taken in hot weather (at least the majority in pants not shorts).

For the 1% or so of the worlds surface that never goes below 40F or above 70F and only rains at night, walkable architecture sounds pretty appealing. For the other 99% of the worlds surface, as soon as economically possible for to own a car, they're going to want a car to get out of the weather. I say this as a guy who considers hiking/backpacking and walking the neighborhood to be "recreational". I wouldn't want my livelihood and lifestyle to depend on walking in a heat wave, a cold snap, a snow storm, a thunderstorm. Its fun for recreation but not serious stuff, like living.
