I'm coming up on about 6 months of car-free life in Seattle. It's certainly been challenging at times, and it's only possible at all because I work from home, but I'm making it work. I'm curious if anyone else is trying to do the same thing. There are a ton of anti-car communities online, but very few people seem to actually go car-free as, like, an ideological thing

Hi BC friend! I'm over in the Fraser Valley and similarly have a car, but only use it for going distances that are not reachable by my RadWagon ebike. We dont have good multi-use pathways because Abbotsford is run by dickheads, but going 40km on the shoulder/bike ditch is usually good enough to keep me from getting vehicular manslaughtered
