How is being in a city a reason not to walk? Isn't it like the exact opposite of that?
I'm guessing the implication is that there are scary people (minorities) or that it's too dangerous (might have to cross a couple of streets or pick a path that's easier to cross a larger street)
Some cities are absolutely not built to be walkable. That said, it doesn't mean it's impossible to walk in a circle around some block somewhere
No, I have. Unless you're in a gang, or actively seeking drugs/trouble, you're likely going to be fine.
Of course I say this as a man, I'm sure it's different for women.
