    Describes a lot of North American cities. Mind you, there are walkable parts of cities, mostly built before the car era, but a majority of urban areas built during the gasoline era are hostile to pedestrians.

      Can you give examples? I live in the US and have been to a lot of cities here. I’ve never had any issues with highways running through or anything.

        You’ve never seen a highway chop up a city? Or multi-lane arterial roads with poor sidewalks or just shoulders? How?

          Not really, I’ve walked a ton of cities. I’ve seen that much more often in more rural areas. What city are you thinking of?
