A good amount of the US is walkable

But when you point this out to people, they get fucking mad at you. Especially other Americans.
I posted this on tv and everyone got fucking pissed at me.

lmao you sure can walk in the trackless deserts and wilderness for sure

Why would you want to walk there

walkable has a different meaning here, it's only about distance when used to refer to an American city. there are hardly any places where cars aren't allowed to go, and the few that exist are on private property.

everything I said was true as well.
the people who seem to get the maddest are either English or American.

Other Americans are basically jealous
why they just don't move idk.

posters form the UK seem to dislike our higher standard of living.
Where quite a few of us have both much larger homes, higher incomes and the same urban patters. Like terraced housing, higher density, sidewalks and more traditional CBD's. This is usally how they justify their lower standard of living though muh convivence or muh crime.

American friend of mine goes to some tiny tourist surfer town in california which has nothing but realtor shops and hipster shit and it's genuinely smaller than my town and despite being less than 5 minutes from hotel to beach they drive every morning

That's their choice

Large amounts of both the east coast and west coast look like this. Especially in the older parts of LA and the bay area. For California specifically. santa barbara is another good example. everything is either in walking distance for most people or less than 5 minutes by car. And the people who live outside Santa Barbara proper have the means to afford not just a car but a driver if they desired.
I don't see what the issue is. Cars and pedestrians can easily coexist.

You stupid fucking faggot. You post the most walkable city in America as your example?

Only downtown is walkable. 99% of people live in suburbs and we have to drive everywhere

>Cars and pedestrians can easily coexist.
it puts a handicap on both of them, cars have to move slower and walkers have to wait at stop lights wasting minutes from their already tighter schedule.

Choice is an illusion. Burgers have been conditioned to treat walking as some extreme sport instead of what it is, the most basic form of locomotion.

>I don't see what the issue is. Cars and pedestrians can easily coexist.

the issue is you have to self segregate yourself in areas that are only reachable by car if you live in city that has black people

>won't walk 10 minutes outside
>will gladly walk for 2 hours inside a gargantuan costco or save lots

Y they like this

A lot of the walkability gurus are actually from other countries but seem to think they're American. Like the Not Just Bikes guy is from Canada, where there are only two actual cities in the whole country (3 if you speak French), and you can't afford them.

The entire country is Santa Barbara and San Francisco. You're right Zander Benson IV

fatties lean on their shopping carts lmao.

pedestrians are not the only reason there are stops signs. It to keep cars from colliding with each other as well. and 95 percent of the time pedestrians are not crossing the street. and more importantly unless there is a stoplight. Pedestrians have the right of way.

and we have freeways where there are no pedestrians or intersections of any kind.
any travel that takes more than 10 minutes is done on a freeway anyways.

a lot of older places are designed similarly. especially on the west and east coast.

The majority of California isn't even what I would consider walkable or bikeable. There are 100s of communities in California that don't even have sidewalks. You have to be in the 1% of rich people to only spend your time in places like San Francisco and Santa Barbara.

pedestrians have the right of way on paper, but in real life the person going the fastest typically steals the right of way. and waiting at stop lights is not the only inconvenience, just the most time consuming one. needing to cross any street wider than one lane means that you're in a car-priority zone, there will be nothing useful for pedestrians such as trash cans, benches, trees for shade. there will only be flat, plain concrete so as not to obstruct the driver's field of vision, and street signs for you to bump into while texting.

San Francisco is not NYC or Miami Beach.

you clearly don't live in a place where walking is the norm.
