used to live in a rlly dense city, you couldn’t go anywhere without a car! so grateful im able to walk to a library or cafe, go basically anywhere without spending a single dollar🙂↕️
wish i could move to one right now. hate urban sprawl, hate having to take care of a car. i love the freedom it gives me, but why did i financially shackle myself to this metal beast. (it's cuz i was 18 and just wanted autonomy)
Even though I almost exclusively bike or use public transit, it's really freeing to know it's there if I need it. Super cold day? Need to travel out of the city? Need to hit up Costco? Feeling a little lazy? No problem. (Chicago btw)
car centric city planning has made everything so spread out and decentralized but I would love to be able to walk to a subway or something and get around all day without a car like in NYC or Chicago. plus the maps are cool to look at
