So like 40 years sgo, in the US, strollers were just these cheap little things, collapsible plastic frames with some heavy fabric to sit the kid in. The new ones are all super big and fancy and have whatever safety features. I would have guessed in areas where the newer kind are not available, they would at least use the older style of stroller. (As they would be less expensive, more portable, easier to produce, less footprint on the street/sidewalk.)
Prams can be quite expensive, like £1000 for some models in the UK. I think cheaper models can be 10-15% of that price though and they are pretty essential for having young kids.
Presumably the social security in a Scandinavian country would be enough to let any parent buy one. Probably the same in the UK although our benefits system is much more stringent.

Strollers used to be these cheap little things. Now they’re like SUVs. Where are you located where they don’t use strollers?

They are common among parents of most if not all classes in Sweden.
They’re the default in the US

Usually those are sold used once they’re not needed anymore
How would you move your baby around without it? Do people just carry them around?
