Do you honestly think we can't do that in Europe?


Do you honestly think there are no walkable cities in the US or whatever outlandish claims are being made by Europeans in this thread?


I’ll re-iterate this here, because I got downvoted there. There is no comparison. Tell me one city in the US that can compare to London, Paris, Madrid, Barcelona, Rome, etc.


"I know european cities are much more pedestrian friendly & that US cities in general are more oriented towards the car lifestyle"

Doesn't sound so outlandish to me.


There is no comparison to be made between european cities where you can walk for hours and hours and see a thousand things vs americans cities where you will mostly spend your time crossing large streets. If you really believe this you probably never have been to Europe.
