German cities are designed for pedestrians with features like wide pavements, parks, and extensive public transport, making walking enjoyable. This design encourages a healthier lifestyle and reduces the need for car ownership. In contrast, US cities, particularly Los Angeles, struggle with limited public transit and extreme car culture, making it necessary for residents to drive for even small errands. The challenges faced while navigating Los Angeles as a pedestrian illustrate the stark difference in urban planning priorities between the two countries.
Germans really enjoy walking, and their cities are designed heavily with pedestrians in mind. Wide pavements, plenty of green space, and a far-reaching public transport network make walking in German cities a pleasure.
In the US, extreme car culture limits public transit connections, forcing many to drive for small errands, which challenges mobility and accessibility.
