What would it take for you to give up driving in a mid-sized city? I've been tracking my own costs—insurance, parking, maintenance, fuel—and it adds up to over $700 a month, yet I still hesitate to sell my car. The bus route near my house runs every 30 minutes and stops running at 10 PM, which makes nights out feel impossible without a ride. Some cities are testing on-demand microtransit and bike lanes that actually connect neighborhoods, but I'm not sure those options would replace the freedom I feel when I just get in and go. Could you realistically switch to car-free living where you are, or is that just a dream for dense downtown cores?
