Suburban pedestrian infrastructure in all of California is bad. Maybe not Florida bad, but pretty bad. Intersections are set up for vehicles, pedestrians have to wait a long time and cars are going to be zipping around the corner without looking to see if anyone is in the crosswalk. Motor fumes, risk of collision, and it takes forever.

I love to walk in urban and wilderness settings, but it's not too much of an exaggeration to say that people walking in the suburbs can't afford an alternative.
