I lived in Brooklyn over a decade, never owned a car. So safe to say I was a foot person. Now I live in Florida, in a fairly walkable neighborhood, but not walkable enough that I can survive without a car. I love walking for exercise, but I didn't realize how much I enjoyed the convenience of walking to grab a coffee, or walking home after after grabbing dinner at a nice restaurant. I don't want to live in a big city again, but definitely want something in-between.

Most mid-tier cities have residential housing near downtowns which usually has shops. Still, for the in-between convenience you get the in-between pain of being in a big city.

I walk in Shamma sandals most of the year.

Oh nice, never heard of Shamma. Will take a look.
Yeah, choosing where to live is all about trade-offs. As I get older, I keep pruning my list- near the ocean, decent farmers market, walkable, clean & safe.
