>Reducing car dependency will increase social activity

My social life (and sense of community) took off when I graduated from college, where I was largely living car-free, and started driving 45 minutes to my full-time job each day. How do you explain that?

Living in a car-dependent community, and choosing to go car-free, sounds like adding another layer of social isolation to me.

I would suspect most people are far more social in college than after, probably your circumstance is individual.
