This may be what I miss most about NYC, not being car dependent. Not owning a car is next to impossible in so many parts of the country. It's really disheartening to see people spend money keeping a beat-up unsafe car running because there is no viable alternative for them. With a decent alternative they could spend those funds elsewhere. I know many would not but many would like the option.
