    24/7 public transportation and cabs. I grew up in NYC. I’m spoiled. I moved up into the Hudson Valley and it’s the only thing I don’t like. Buses and cabs stop at a certain time. WTF🤷‍♀️

    Safe bike paths that go through most of the city with both fast lanes and slow lanes.

    Really good urban trails.

    In Texas, they have a lane designated for getting off the freeway, and turning around, without having to wait for thru-traffic, or lights. It’s a good thing too, because the freeways soar into the air without any way to easily turn around if you miss an exit.
