Like if it's even an option for you at all, make the move. It's such a better quality of life it's crazy, cannot be exaggerated.

Obviously not easy, but if it's even at all potentially feasible do what you can to make it happen.

    There are also pockets of most major cities that are walkable. Unfortunately it isn't easy to know where they are unless you live there. The only clue is to look at places that are within 1 block of grocery stores, which is probably the top constraint.

        Developers have been using walkscore as a marketing tool for years. The correlation between the score and places that have gentrified or are gentrifying is pretty significant.

          That's also the nature of urban development in the United States. Highly walkable areas are gonna correlate with those that are getting all the "revitalization funds" that build new infrastructure. We already know that American cities don't want to invest in the areara as they exist.
