Which, ya know, seems like a safer place for doing the walking thang.

There was one street near me where it was indeed the opposite. The road was barely used, but pristine. Sidewalk was in awful shape, you could easily trip on the holes, and one manhole cover was bent and barely holding on, as it was actually just some metal sheet.
I only used it as a kid when I rode my bike, as it was more fun.
