Braver soles than I.
Humans are trash and leave sharp shit everywhere in walking paths.
Not just that, if this is in a city all that black stuff is concentrated soot from cars. Having that on your skin all day just increases your chance to get cancer or some other disease.
Soot and microplastics from the tires. People say they feel safer in cities, but I sure don't.
I’ve never heard anyone say that. There’s far more crime in cities, and pollution, and more traffic accidents due to more traffic, why would anyone feel safer in a city?
Cities are trash heaps, filled with people that forget where their food comes from, and ignorant of where their shit goes to contaminate.
I've heard it said on lemmy. Basically, just stereotypes about rural people being violent hicks. They're ignorant of how much of their opinions are being shaped by media bias from urban people. Look up the "rural purge" that happened to 70's era US TV.
A walkable city like Savannah, GA is nice, but you wouldn't catch me living in one of the "big" cities.
