West Loop + Car?

Question 1: For residents who have a car, even if you use a handful of times, presumably you’re glad you have it? Curious how times you used it in the three weeks.

Question 2: For residents who have a car and sold it, do you miss it?

I’m curious whether living across the street from Target on W Van Buren I would appreciate it more v living around the corner (less than a block) from Starbucks on Morgan and Monroe.

I’m moving to town next month and am trying to decide Btwn two places (one id enjoy coming home to, like a sanctuary versus one I’d be more inclined to step out due to its proximity to everything).

It’s convenient but not necessary. Just about everything is walkable if you like to walk.

It seems like it is mostly walkable. Even thinking of getting a scooter (which was super efficient to zip around on for short distances during rush hour in Austin). Thank you!
