Car-Free Living Takes Off in Car-Centric Cities

[BrothaZay]

car industry gonna shut this down

It's an interesting concept but I prefer having my own mobility.

You’re brainwashed

This is a great idea, but I refuse to live in an apartment/townhome/studio/flat/condo or whatever people consider them. I need a front and backyard to myself.

Most Americans don’t even use their backyards or front yards and don’t deserve to have them as a result.

It doesn’t make sense that I see more people outside enjoying nature in urban areas more than I do in the suburbs.

My cousins backyard in Georgia is filled with ticks

I wasn't raised in an apartment or flat so no way I'd settle for that now..
There's no way another human is dwelling above or beneath me

Woudnt your children be dwelling above or beneath you in a single family house?

Public transportation for the eyes of many, is a symbol of poverty and drama on some Worldstar Hip-hop fukkery of fighting with strangers. It will take a few more generations to kill that stigma of public transportation and sharing it with other people.

That’s funny cause most Americans can barley even afford car repair

“The majority of Americans want to live in car-free neighborhoods,”
FALSE

Majority of Americans want the option to go car free.
Most people do not want the option of having a car taken away from them. Big difference.

The only people mad at this are people who haven't actually tried living in a city where you could just walk down to the store when you want something or get on clean and reliable public transit

Where in the United States of America is there clean AND reliable public transit?


Let me know.

Most Americans love their backyard and maintain them as long as their physically able to..

trying to avoid a rigid uniform appearance and make the on the ground landscape unique building to building.


you can imagine the scenarios when people are on autopilot and they walk down the wrong street or worse into the wrong building or apartment because every building and street looks the same.

people risking their freedom, driving without a license or on a suspended license in areas with little to no reliable public transportation.

Having lived places with none, bad, decent, and great public transit, the main problem is that most cities are too spread out commercially.

You can make walkable neighborhoods and schools( even though schools probably aren’t the safety draw they used to be) by the main hinderance is really the fact we have lost our malls.

It’s not the ability to make it to a dentist appointment that makes people chained to cars. It’s being able to run 6 errands at once. Malls used to be an all day thing. You could accomplish everything in a mile of it.

Now we having shopping districts which span miles in several directions

the guy who created malls later came to hate it.

Bro the risk I’ve seen people take driving cars. Remember my homie drown an I8 with his brake lights on

They love the appearance and barely use them. That’s why their kids end up being grown 30-40 year old children moving to urban centers to relive their childhood
