Is that amount of time common to walk in places in the world where cars don’t dictate the layout of the community?
Im going to be making this walk tomorrow, no worries, I’m just curious if its normal in other places. Maps says its 1hour15minues for 2.3miles or 3.7Km.
No, we don’t forget that! What, you think we’re idiots? In fact, we are able to distinguish the difference between logistics vehicles and people moving about in individual vehicles. Those are two very different things. A dozen or so semis to the grocery store every day is a far sight different than thousands of cars.
Walkable cities around the world still have stores. And vehicles. It’s not that hard.
Cool, let’s acknowledge families next. :) I used public transportation until shopping for 5 kids and taking them everywhere until they are old enough required the use of a car. Not a fan, but couldn’t be helped. How do we solve for that in walkable neighborhoods? I know what you want to say, let’s play devils advocate and find some good arguments to use. ;)
Simple: Kids can walk, too.
Tell me to don’t have kids without telling me you don’t have small kids. X)
Hmm, yes, I guess I forgot about anthropology’s Out of Africa (In a Minivan) hypothesis on the origin of the human species.
Ya let’s get back to nomadism. Live in tentssI guess?
