Everywhere I've lived non-scheduled bus routes run like every 5-10 mins anyway.
Also, just walk for a bit? Or instead of doing a grocery trip pick some stuff up on the way home every day, one of the advantages of cities is usually, bus or walk, there's a grocery store on your commute home. Like you don't need to isolate every bit of your life.
I've lived:
Honestly, best trips to the grocery store were in the rural town. 5 minute walk down the middle of the street cause you'll see like 4 cars per hour. City had better variety but at worst it was like a 20min walk each way, which is admittedly hard to do in the snow/cold and/or while carrying anything heavy. I got frostnip on the walk once cause I lost my gloves and a heavy bag I was carrying cut off circulation a bit.
Nuke the exurbs and :inshallah-script: the suburbs will be demolished by the pressure wave
