minus-square@noli@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglish1•10 days agoProbably my personal bias, I have 5 different places I could get food from within 15 minutes walking. Closer to 20 when taking a bike. When I visited the US I was gobsmacked by literally everything being a 30min walk at least, even in more densely populated areas

It only really becomes viable once you add the bike back in. So while a walk-able city is a great idea in general, it does nothing for this particular issue.
