Man I was gonna type something about how it's because your city is designed around car centric infrastructure and density and cargo bikes and shit but honestly there ain't no way I'm gonna say anything to you that hasn't already been said.

    I think there's this misconception that the US is basically NYC or dirt-road farmland, and the reality is that there's a lot of in-between. I live <20 minutes from the closest mall by car, yet even transportation or food delivery apps (e.g. uber, uber eats) essentially don't serve my area, so forget public transportation.

    Most of the in-between is closer to the dirt-road farmland. Even if you live "in a city," there's a big chance you'll be living a long walk through some car-dependent wasteland to the nearest anything that isn't a house, with near-zero care, effort and/or space given to anyone who's not in a car.
