    My perspective is coming from Denmark. Around most of the country, a car is essential. Most of the country is farmland. People live on this farmland, and without a car, getting to work, buying groceries, getting to the doctor, is simply not feasible.

    I don’t own a car, because I live in a city, but I grew up somewhere, where you can’t live without a car.

    So why do people live out there? Because they’re farmers, construction workers and everything else an area with a lot of agriculture needs.

      Are you seriously using denmark as an example of car dependence?
      This is the extent of the danish rail network in 1930, there is no reason any part of denmark needs to be car dependent.
