Living outside a city doesn't mean you get to roar through it in your SUV and park a step away from your destination. A city has a lot of important services, but it is also a place where people live, and those people get to make choices that put their community first. But while we're on the topic of rural areas having terrible public transportation, I think that's a really important one. Switzerland has a smaller rural-urban divide (which is really where this whole "war on cars" thing comes in), in part because it is actually practical to move between rural and urban spaces on a regular basis. That isn't because the cities are more driveable, or because they build a highway through Bern: it's because they invested in public transit that actually works. This kind of talk benefits everyone. |
