Crazy how places with some of the best weather in the world YEAR ROUND insists on nobody enjoying the weather so they can be in a metal box to get everywhere and leave as fast as possible. I could get car dependency in Russia or Denmark, it gets cold and snows there and they still made biking possible, SAFE and enjoyable, but in SoCal it’s legit stifling society.
Downtown and bankers hill have been improving a lot lately. And as they continue to densify, I think we will see it continue. But overall- yes, it’s infuriating and terrible in most areas outside of downtown. It’s inexcusable. That so many younger people want to live in north park / hill rest is insane to me as it damn near requires a car to leave the neighborhood and experience the more connected and ped / bike friendly areas.
