I walk regularly in my neighborhood. There are pedestrian friendly streets nearby, but most of them aren't. Many roads have no sidewalks and narrow shoulders -- you can either jump in the ditch or slap the side mirrors of passing cars. Even where there are sidewalks, the city for some reason built them with zero separation from the traffic. The busier intersections are dangerous to pedestrians, even if crossing with the signal. It's generally assumed that everyone drives everywhere. Walkers are presumed to be sub-human homeless bums, and bicyclists are presumed to be the even more despicable enviro-commies. For some reason, there's a lot of fatties around here too. Overall, not a very good grade, and we should try to be better.
