This is a primary reason I live in a real city, of the sort of which are common everywhere but the USA.

Likewise! If you live in a reasonable urban center, walking can just happen in the course of the day, without requiring special time and effort. I never exercise for exercise's sake, but I walk to work, walk to the store, walk to get coffee, walk to the bar, walk to friends' houses; at least 40 minutes of walking every day, often more. It is so much more pleasant than driving everywhere.
