The town of Avalon, California (on Catalina Island) is almost solely comprised of golf carts. The use of carts in this city just doesn't seem practical honestly.,(reply>), It's completely practical. Paths go everywhere (except the Fitness 54 gym! Why?!), and there are golf cart parking spots most places. They're very cheap and easy to maintain. Electricity is very cheap. Golf carts cost a lot less than cars. Mine, which still works fine (after ~$3,000 in repairs over 12 years I've had it) is a 1994-ish EZ-GO that my parents originally bought used for $500 when I was in high school.
