City Life

Living in a small Dutch city (~90k) near a major city, where I work.

• Walking to local square with supermarkets/hairdressers/cafe's/etc. Just a few minutes.
• Cycling pretty much everywhere else in the city, mostly visiting family and friends.
• Public transport everywhere else (which makes up the bulk). Two bus stops in ~5 min walk, railway station <10 min bike ride.

Only in the last few years have I come to appreciate how lucky I am to live in such a well designed place. What my hometown does especially well is traffic segregation - there's a good network of carfree/lite routes throughout the city. Not just great for cycling but also running.

Hamburg, Germany: I don't own a car and get around by by a mix of bike/Public/walking transport. If I need to transport big I either ask a friend or rent a car, though those occasions are extremely rare (less then once a year). Longer distances I also travel by public transport.

Small ish city in the Midwest. Car. Fortunately I enjoy driving and like my car (Mazda 3). Putting on some tunes or a podcast is a good way to work up to and wind down from the office.

I pretty exclusively bike and subway! Being in NYC makes it easy to do so.

I get 90%+ of my trips around by walking and biking, occasionally by public transport and only a few times per year I need a car. Living in the Netherlands.

The vast majority of my journeys are on foot. The remainder are with public transit. I don't own a car or a bike

NYC - walking and subway! I had a car and now I'm so happy to live in an area I don't need it. Also on the plus side, my calves have grown substantially...
