A small car-less resort town that makes its money in no small part by providing tourists with a pleasant experience isn't really a model for cities. (And it's a pretty mobbed place at the popular times of year.) If you just want to move someplace quiet with Internet access there are lots of options.
There are a few villages in the Swiss alps with no cars or very limited use of cars. In one I visited, a hotel owner picked up guests and their luggage from the gondola using something like a golf cart. It worked well - low speed, smaller, less dangerous, quieter, etc.
