I'm in Spokane, and lemme just say I love the 25 mph roads near parks, with the "SLOW DOWN" speed detectors along the way.

Now, if you can only get physical separators between auto & bike lanes ....

I’d say I’m living a 15-minute city life right now. I have the following within a 15-minute walk:
Hospital.
Several supermarkets.
A large cinema.
Multiple restaurants.
Takeaway food of every kind.
Loads of bars.
Public exercise facilities.
Two private gyms (which I don’t use).
Large sports facilities.
Swimming pools.
An ice rink.
Fast public transport to Belfast and a train network.

Move to Dundonald. I was lucky enough to be born here 🥳

ASU study: Relying on a car is linked to lower life satisfaction. The most surprising aspect of this is the ASU part — my alma mater. Rababe could have just asked me.

Depending on a car could be impacting your life satisfaction | ASU News

A viral research study led by Rababe Saadaoui, a PhD planning student in Arizona State University's School of Geographical Sciences and Urban Planning, has uncovered a link between car dependency and life satisfaction in the United States.

I just realized that all of the seasons of "The Life Sized City" are free on YouTube since 2024. I was previously unable to watch these because of paywalls, subscriptions, etc.

"Today, Paris counts more than 50 self-contained “15-minute neighbourhoods” within its city limits."

Best advertisement ever.

And no, it's not controversial in the UK: there are many 15-minute cities in the UK. What there is as well is an entrenched car culture that must end soon, because far from serving any need, only further stuffs the pockets of the rich.
