#Walkability
I love seeing Alaskan villages ranked for their walkability! @thewaroncars.bsky.social
No shade at all to Bethel, Dillingham, or Utqiagvik, but Kotzebue is my favorite hub community bc it’s 💯 walkable. I love not needing a car. It’s the same reason downtown/main part of Juneau is so great. We have so few walkable communities in Alaska and my city of Anchorage is far from it.

Hobbiton is unparalleled in walkability.

I will take housing where I can get it and believe we can improve the corridors from a walkability standpoint. But we do need to be honest that solely focusing density on corridors is a choice fueled in part by the desire to insulate homeowners from experiencing any change.
Mapping this out for Chicago.

Since the redistricting in 2023, in Ward 47, a significant majority of multifamily housing units permitted are located on streets with > 50dBA road noise

I think drivers have proven they aren’t mature enough to drive without supervision - all the more argument for more buses, bikes and walkability. Cars should not be able to speed at all in this technological age.

And that's the biggest reason we traveled there last spring: The city that beat the fascist in chief. (And has great food, museums, walkability, etc. etc.)

Let’s encourage sustainable density, infill development, and walkability to benefit everyone.
Every neighborhood has a spot that is underdeveloped or blighted and needs a push. Land value tax can provide that push. Let’s bring land value tax to Minnesota.

Land Value Tax is a powerful tool for addressing underdeveloped properties. What could it do for Midway?

Right? It's all interconnected. Focusing on climate also means improving mass transit! Walkability! Protecting against damage caused by flooding/drought/severe weather!

shout-out to Councilwoman Deb Gross, who’s been a real one for transit, walkability and affordable housing in Pittsburgh.
Pittsburgh City Councilor Deb Gross will not seek reelection
Gross said she would step down when her term ends on December 31, 2027 – in part because she was confident that there are "capable leaders” in her district.

I'd really like to finish getting my bike fixed up and repaired because where I live sucks total ass for any kind of walkability or transit access, but I haven't even managed to cover the rent and bills by myself in months, and the job I had last year dried up
my main limitation has been lack of any income since my boss had to close down his biz to pay an unexpectedly large tax bill; hard to get any progress when every dime you get is going to rent, bills, and food cuz I'm the kinda damn fool who tries to help others even when I'm broke af

But fascists losing in big part because of the price of gas is no long or even medium solution to fossil fascism. Goal must be massive expansion of renewables, public transport, & walkability. In the only livable future, gallon of gas will be priced at its true, devastating cost.

Some spaces/locations cannot realistically do better than a coffee shop or a bodega/corner store. Both rely on hyper local customers. Usually dependant on walkability and proximity.

Yet most of these existing places offer rents exclusively on one formula. Square footage + location.

sick of seeing our neighbors lose their homes, sick of paying $$$$ for healthcare, sick of high cost rents, sick of potholes, sick of poorly designed cities that offer no walkability, sick of lousy public transit, I could go on & on.

The elections were a massive win for us! Many new transit,housing,and walkability advocates got elected to positions and many funding ballot measures passed.

But the time to celebrate is over. If anything we should be pushing harder than ever to make our communities better places to live.

If your city’s walkability score tanks, do you automate a friendly wave script for the dog walkers or just carry treats?

Just saw this after walking through DTK, strongly agree. There are a few businesses I like that I am worried about. The apps thing seems like a chicken and egg problem: restaurants need apps because they don’t get enough walk-ins. More walkability would help!

I regularly ride 2.5 miles each way to a 13000 SQ ft trader Joe's because of their prices. There's a ton of closer, more expensive options that I use when I don't have time, tho. And the Lidl is at The Edge of walkability (1 mile)

i think i am most definitely moving to portland when my year is done here in eugene. it's beautiful here but LA spoiled me to walkability everywhere i need it back desperately

i actually live in Major Bumsville and i gotta say, the quality of living and walkability is honestly really good for how low the cost of rent is

I want more transit, bike lanes and walkability; not more cars of any kind
