The US has a lot of places that are car-dependent. You can live in walkable areas, but those can also have much higher cost of living. Where did you end up on that spectrum for where you live right now?

I would die if i tried walking, i live just outside of town on a dangerous blind curve, but there is a small housing district that's mildly walkable on my way into town. It's got sidewalks on at least one side of the road and they lead to mainstreet (which is to say the library and the post office, the sidewalk ends before any store that sells essentials, but it's slightly less dangerous than my blind curve).
