@markstos @bloomington_in The "money saved" number is much bigger if one can do without car ownership. By living where a car was unnecessary, we could live w/o a car and saved thousands of $$ per year.
@ObbieZ @bloomington_in That’s right. New car ownership in the US is estimated to average about $900/month… and that figure is from a group that advocates for car infra!
