ray of lightJust wanna say that here it's not common for young people to have cars. I'm 23 and only two people I know from my age have cars. One guy because he's actually into cars and a girl because she's f***ing rich.
Here a car is like a house. You usually buy it when you are finally "adulting", in your late 20s. And it's an investment because it's VERY expensive.
where im from you get a car age 18 and you gonna struggle if you aint got one

VoxHouston is incredible in a lot of ways but I know this video is gonna rip it rightfully for its bullshit sprawl/planning
Do you have any more videos/reads/books about public transit?
I tried to pursue urban planning because of my experiences with public transit and walking in another sprawling Texan city (Austin) but have become discouraged for multiple reasons. I absolutely love public transit though (I'm glad you mentioned the social aspect that comes with transit/walking vs how isolating cars are, public transit really opens you up to a wider world in ways I could talk about all day) and always want to learn more about it.

eye contactReading about how GM bought and dismantled the entire LA rail system to pave it over for streets to sell their cars is one of the most disgusting things I’ve ever see
Any recommend reading on this?

you mean as a career? tbh I don't know what that field looks like as a career but I'm not opposed to it. I'm definitely interested in learning more about it though

Sep 22, 2021Nyc subway ass, sole reason why i wouldnt move there
Sep 22, 2021as i get older, i think i disagree with this more and more. i live in Toronto in a very accessible area by public transit, and i've been using it regularly from when i was 12.
i'm 24 now and think the sheer flexibility of having your own car is so appealing. just being able to drive wherever, whenever, for any reason seems particularly liberating in a way that public transport can't compare.
