I live in a fairly small town. Notably it was never bulldozed to build gigantic stroads or highways and grew slowly enough that there is a single stroad which the city has been slowly extending a sidewalk/bikepath along. For anyone who lives and works in town, it's very walkable/bikable. Problem is it's a small town of around 10-15k people so lots of stuff requires running to the nearest large city for medical appointments and shopping and whatnot
With remote work my family has been able to make it work with only one car, and I'll bike to stuff in town so my wife can use the car when she needs to. There's some logistical challenges at times but ultimately it's really nice only worrying about the cost of a single shared vehicle
