      There are no sidewalks, bike lanes or even a shoulder on the road. I walked home from the tire shop next to the store one time last year and four people stopped to offer me a ride because it’s that dangerous.

      Also it’s currently way below freezing here. I would still walk in those temps but not many people will, and not everyone can walk two miles each way (which is more like 1-2 hrs of walking total)

        Honestly, that’s the biggest problem with suburbs; that they are often purposefully designed to not be walkable.
