You'll have an angry mob at your door if you even think about carrying a kid on anything with less than four wheels.

I see young children being carried by a trailer behind a bicycle often in the PNW region of the US.

Count the wheels ;)

I chose my words carefully. Seems like bike trailers have mostly replaced those kid seats that used to go on the backs of bikes.

I see these all the time in the more affluent areas of brooklyn. Two wheels, kids on the back.

Yepp seats are extremely common now. Nearly all cargo/utility bikes have compatible racks and often feature the child seats installed.
