text: Germany has also made an effort to limit automobile use by starting a community that has almost zero cars. Cars are forbidden in Vauban, Germany. 70 percent of the people in this city do not own cars and rely on bikes, scooters, and public transportation to get them around. A woman from source 1 says, "When I had a car I was always tense. I'm much happier this way." this shows that people were not forced to be here for an experiment, it shows that life without cars, or at least a very limited ammount of them, can be very beneficial to not just the enviorment, but also the induvidual lives of the people that it is affecting. The city of Vauban has made an effort to be very dense and they have stores that are next to the residential area so citizens can walk there and not drive.
