"outside of NYC or Chicago"

I've been carless in Boston (technically cambridge and somerville) for 15 years now and it's not at all been an issue.

I'm not some wackadoo outlier either, I know tons of people like myself.

I live in Somerville and work in Cambridge, no car, commute on the bus and otherwise get around exclusively w/ public transit. Parent is not alone.

Having to own a car is a deal-breaker.
