The city/cities I have lived in would not be considered walkable by many people. The thing is if you want walkable you pick your location in the city to make it walkable for you. I have always been able to find a place that can cover a large % of my trips by foot. I love cars and still own them, I just prefer to run my errands on foot.

there's a massive difference between city planning in European cities vs Canadian for example. I walk my groceries too, like 18 blocks, it's walkable but not what I would define as "a walkable city", which would be someplace with pedestrian priority zones and not needing to walk more than 10 blocks for anything you might need.
