Is that amount of time common to walk in places in the world where cars don’t dictate the layout of the community?

Im going to be making this walk tomorrow, no worries, I’m just curious if its normal in other places. Maps says its 1hour15minues for 2.3miles or 3.7Km.

    No.

    Walking that much sucks because you are all sweaty when you arrive at your destination.

    Walkable environments wouldn’t include distances like that anyways. The real way to solve this issue is to have town centers that you drive to, and then leave your car behind when you enter it.

      If you have even moderate housing density and don’t have giant parking lots and freeways everywhere you can fit most things within a 2 mile radius. Then with that higher density of people since you aren’t wasting a bunch of space on highways and parking you can build usable public transit
