I've been keeping an eye out for properties in my area, and have seen some enticing ones, but damn, lots of these neighborhoods don't even have sidewalks.

At my current location, there are three city parks within a quarter mile, a nice grocery store about a mile away, and lots of rural trails that wind up through farm fields. Folks drive their cars and park near here to take their daily walks around this neighborhood.
