text: Public transportation such as trains and buses exist in most major cities, especially in America and Europe. San Francisco is a busy city with many young residents, and many of these residents are not interested in getting their liscenses. ". . . They organize their summer jobs and social life around where they can walk or take public transportation or car-pool with friends." Because so many options exists, many people don't feel the need to own a car anymore. Similarily, some cities and towns have been made specifically to be navigated by foot, like Vauban Germany. Towns like Vauban are tailored to fit its resident's needs in everyway. ". . . In this new approach, stores are placed a walk away, on a main streer, rather than in malls along some distant highway." In Vauban, necessities are convieniently placed so that the town's inhabitents may acsess them with ease, rather than driving around the town.
