Tbh buying groceries in bulk is pretty much the one thing suburbia has going for it in my opinion. I'd say that needing to go shopping every day is the bigger hassle

Time is a commodity, and becomes even more tight as an individual living from paycheck to paycheck. Grocery shopping every day or two likely isn’t tenable. Not if you want time to sleep between 16h work days.

It’s why some poor folks rely on fast food. There’s no time for anything else.

Yes, Cars need space, yes, Cars are totally useless in cities and yes, even in suburbs you don't need a car.

But whats really frustrating to me is the condescending view of people with perfect infrastructure in people with Cars in general.

I live in a village and you know why? Because I'm raised in a Village, thats how I'm used to live and it's not an Option to me to move 20-30 miles away in a town where I know nobody. The other reason is that there are just not enough apartments so even if I would wan't it's either crazy expensive or just not available.

I say this because I read far too often that people should just move into the city and leave just all behind because the authors are just life long urbans.

I fully argee that people with good existing infrastructure should leave cars behind because both is stupid. But if we all can also accept slightly different life plan with their own pros and cons that would be great.
