Upon retiring from work at age 58 (lucky me) in 2012, I chose to leave the United States in favor of Europe, where I ended up staying in Budapest, Hungary, for six years. I rented a studio apartment near the city center, bought a used bicycle, and enjoyed a modest, inexpensive, yet comfortable lifestyle.
Since my return to the U.S. in 2018, Iโve found there are many things I miss. When I lived in Budapest, there were three different small independent bakeries within a five-minute walk from my apartment. Also in that same radius were a couple of almost literal hole-in-the-wall fruit and vegetable shops offering delicious fresh produce. And although the nearby area held no chain restaurants, it was home to several quite good local eateries.
There were clothing stores selling both new and used goods, as well as shoe stores, all of them small and independent, not necessarily carrying a wide selection, but providing high quality items at surprisingly low prices, and with friendly trustworthy service. Plus, within a five-minute walk was a practically free public transit system than made frequent stops and could take me almost anywhere I wanted to go within the city, safely, reliably, and quickly.
So I wonder, why is it that โ at least in my current neighborhood in suburban Virginia โ the only options for baked goods or produce or clothing or home furnishings or hardware or almost anything else are chain stores? Well, that, or freaking Amazon. Why are all other choices so limited, so few and so far between? Why does virtually everything depend upon โ no, actually *demand* the use of a car to get there?
Most United Statesians, I suspect, have no idea that people in other countries live so differently than the way we do here. We have been sold on the idea, taught from an early age, that ours is the best way, indeed the only sensible way to do things. Anyone suggesting that a less car-centric and hyper-capitalistic culture is not only possible but desirable, that it could be much more pleasant and satisfying, not to mention safer and more friendly to the environment, well, they plainly donโt know what theyโre talking about. It makes me sad and angry.

I know youโre making a point about most suburbs and midsized cities. There are many many villages here in USA that the characteristics you like, and lack the fascistic culture (still).
The small villages around here are ghost towns. Mom's and Pop's grocery stores are all gone with the small hardware stores, lost to the Juggernaut of chain stores. Shoe repair no longer even exists, lost to disposable shoes from China.
I lived in Hilton Village, Va until I was 11, idyllic, now it's just a suburb of Newport News, with a 4 lane through the middle of town. The Village Theater and the Woolworth's dime store are gone along with all the small stores.

I would be in favor of "most aligned with the Human Rights", that would be quite civilized, what do you think?
@johnelalamo @JonChevreau @breadandcircuses
@johentsch
A good metric, but again highly debatable. Without taking a stance myself, I would posit the that the treatment of secessionists by the national govt has been very controversial. By the same token, amnesty of the same (for purely political reasons) has been criticized heavily for failing to maintain rule of law.
That's off the top of my head, I'm sure there are other examples. Then again I've limited perspective (only lived in US and DE).

Robber baron capitalism desires building monopolies. Small, self-owned shops without at least paying a license to a franchise are not their thing.
It is usually not allowed to operate a shop in residential areas, you may do your startup in a garage when it doesn't disturb neighbors, but once you have frequent customer visits, it's not allowed. This separation is there to enforce concentration.
I live in a New Town in the UK (pop 70,000 approx)
It is split into multiple areas. Each area has its own shops and other facilities within walking distance.
There is a Central mall area of the town which can be reached by public transport (bus) in less than 20 minutes from most areas of the town. Those bus services also take you into the nearby city and other large towns in about 40-60 mins depending where you are going.
@vivienhessel Yes, I know. I remarked on that in a comment immediately following the OP. See -- https://climatejustice.social/@breadandcircuses/112105326460533993

What do you think is different about our regulatory environment that makes it this way?
Bread and Circuses reshared this.
I think it truly is the fact that the majority of North American (Canada is included here) development and population growth occurred after the industrial revolution, after the advent of vehicles. Cities in other parts of the world were founded by people on foot and by animal. That spatial context not only determined the shape of their central urban landscapes but also the in between places. The millions of tiny villages around the world. The cultural difference in North America when building and creating a city lent itself to vehicles and long distances. That meant the advent of shopping malls, department stores, then big box stores, killing small businesses along the way.
Add in our fascination (egged on by government) with real estate as an investment rather than owning something for generations, and we have never developed the kind of culture the old world did.

@chris I think this ignores how heavily subsidized car infrastructure was (and is) & how laws were changed that made it harder to own and operate trolly systems profitably. There was active and effective lobbying for car dependency.
This was not the natural consequence of cars existing. It was an intentional shift of infrastructure money toward people that could afford a home, were allowed to get home loans, and could afford a car. Suddenly subsidizing public transit was looked down upon, but subsiding roads was โthe American dream.โ
Los Angeles had the largest trolley network in the world in the 1920s. The communities that still exist that were built around those lines are insanely popular and expensive because people actually like walkable cities. The reason they are rarely built now is a combination of car dependent zoning & developer greed.
This is what happens when regulators fail to do their job breaking up large corporate conglomerates that stifle actual competition.

There are a number of reasons for the decline of small independent companies:
1. The lack of a nationalized health care system means only large companies can afford benefits.
Small companies can't afford the extortion of the medical insurance industry and are starved for qualified labor
2. Regulatory capture
Tax subsidies favor large companies most.
3. High living costs
Enormous rent increases mean commercial leases are out of reach for both small business AND workers

I cannot comment on the US in regards to variety of shopping possibilities, nor on Hungary since I've never been to that country in Europe.
But I can feel you in regards what you described of Budapest since my hometown Hamburg isn't all that different.
Over here you also have a lot of smaller shops and although the number of chains has been growing in recent years, a lot of individual, homey flair still prevails in this city with its almost two million inhabitants.
I've never owned a car in my life (I don't even have a driver's license) and to be honest, it's never been an inconvenience. While Germany is known in the EU for having a public transport with a lot of problems, it's still extensive enough in cities to allow for you to get anywhere with ease.
Moreover, recently there has been a lot of grassroot movement to make cities greener, more bicycle-friendly, and generally more people-friendly. Seeing how governments in all nations struggle to adopt any reasonable policies to protect our biosphere, I believe this approach of activating local communities to force change on the communal level as the best way to get anything changed. It's not a fast method by any means and it's also met with a lot of resistance, but it leads to cities and towns slowly shifting away from being car-centered in the EU, which is a huge plus.
Either way, I believe the difference you describe comes from regulation.
Neoliberal capitalism thrives thanks to the state leaving everything to the private owners, thus allowing them to dominate markets. Capitalism as a system is set to consolidate money (power) into the hands of few, eventually creating a limited number of monopolies. This is what you see in Virginia and what has also been happening over here, albeit much slower.
The rate of consolidation is dictated by the tightness of the regulations. Most EU countries and the EU itself are quite regulative in all areas. Companies have many rules and policies they need to watch when selling things or offering services. This is also the reason why many EU politicians and economists ran their mouths about "liberation of the markets" in the 90s at the height of the capitalist fever dream.
I dare say, the US has gone further down the capitalist rabbit hole, so the regulations over there are much laxer, which in turn makes it easier for rich entities to use their power to gobble up all potential competition.
And no, I don't think that tight regulations to keep capitalism contained can be regarded as feasible solution to fix today's problems. After all, we can nowadays see that all those past regulations have been watered down after years of lobbying and campaigning by the rich caste. So capitalism will need to go either way.

on the topic of looking down at car-reduced living, there is some deeply weird obsession for those on the right wing in the uk who want to see 15 minute cities as some sort of conspiracy.

why did you go back though?
@vaughnsc Youโve just described several of the reasons that I like living in Guanajuato Mexico. And before Americans say thatโs inefficient, I can walk to (and buy from) a dulcerรญa (sweet breads and cakes), a bread street vendor, a carnicerรญa (butcher) , a fruterรญa (fruit and vegetables), a farmacia (drugstore), and a tienda (general store) to do all my shopping and be home in less than the time it takes me to drive to the nearest grocery store, park, shop the aisles, and get back.

A lot of this is the result of car culture, as you observe.
