By your standards you make shit. But I’ve actually looked into this. For me moving downtown which is the only real walkable place in my area would increase my rent over $400 a month. I just can’t afford that. Many people have to live away from the city’s. This country is not designed to be walkable, very few places are and you are trying to say that everyone could afford to live in those tiny walkable areas and those tiny walkable areas could fit everybody if they all wanted to be there.
Where I am, the only place I can afford, the nearest grocery store… Which also happens to be the nearest bus stop… Is 5 mi away. And because of the ass backwards bus system here after I walked those five miles it would take me nearly 2 hours to get to work when the drive is 20 minutes.
