    You have to remember two things

    1. Many Americans live in suburbs where 3 miles might get you out of the suburb

    2. America’s car brained infrastructure design means most places have incredibly shit accommodations for pedestrians

      I mean I get the socioeconomic reasons, I think what irks me most is calling 3 miles a hike. That’s a walk. It’s fine to do a walk, it’s just not hiking
