Comment Comment by atif089 It's cheap but you also travel a lot in the US. Specially in the southern states because everything is so far.Anecdotal reference, my children's school is roughly 3 miles, so I spend a gallon of gas every day with 2 round-trips.That number was zero in Netherlands because all schools are either walkable or bike able.Supermarkets and restaurants are 5 miles away easily.Heck, my neighbor (door to door) is 0.4 miles. parent atif089 3 months ago
