      The definition is not that difficult

      Idk if you’re trolling or just obstinate, but if you don’t explain the exact definition you are using, it is impossible to determine what meets it and what does not.

      For example:

      Walkability is a measure of how accessible services and amenities are by foot or transit. A city is walkable if a broad range of these are thusly available.

        Sure, your definition works. Your place of work is obviously included into the list of location that needs to be accessible, since it’s somewhere you commute to almost every day.

            That depends. If the one that is excluded is the majority of your destinations, I’d say it is in fact required to be walkable

        They’re not being obstinate. You are working very hard not to understand that your job has to be walkable too.

      Let me just walk my 315lb welder to work each morning. Can I borrow your kids radio flyer after you walked them to school?

          Have you ever heard the term welding rig? Gas /diesel welder? Self-employed? Field repair? Millwright ? Heavy equipment? Residential fence/gate repair. Structural? You know all those things that require mobile welding.

            Not in the context of any jobs that a person of any intelligence would consider “walkable”, no.

            Since that’s what we were talking about, I presumed you were smart enough to understand that “walkable jobs” would exclude all of the things you just asked me about. I apologize for making undue assumptions about you.

        If only the only people that use cars on a daily basis were the ones that actually need to, maybe you wouldn’t be so bitter and angry about it.
