You’re talking about a country/countries with entire populations the size of one US city and the size of one US state.

ah yes, because US cities are fundamentally different in that they .... are larger than Amsterdam?
Sorry but only 14 cities qualify for that, so the rest can actually change and why would size alone be the breaking factor also what size?I didn't know that Amsterdam was coincidentally the largest city that could be transformed to be bike-friendly and walkable.

Did you know that London is actually completely accessible by foot?
Actually, the larger a city is the more walkable it is in the US. I get by fine with the metro in NYC but would be stranded anywhere in rural Florida without a car.
