I need advice on where to move in America, looking for as urban and walkable as possible, while also being cheap
I'm considering
>Philly
>Tulsa (they will pay $10000 for remote workers to move there, I'm not fully remote but still)
>Albuquerque
>somewhere in California for the weather (is anywhere there livably cheap)

Philadelphia is urban as hell and is the most walkable of what you've listed, if you live in the city - which is great because it's a nightmare driving there. Costs are way high though and it can be a pretty crowded and dangerous place.
Tulsa is not very walkable, except for the city center, but comparatively it's extremely cheap to live there, but there is not very much to do. Crime rates go up the further into the center you go though. If you're prone to stay indoors or can afford a nicer neighborhood it should be fine for you.
Albuquerque is probably the least walkable, due to the design and how fucking hot it is. Costs are average though. I haven't spent a lot of time there so I don't have much to say.
Lol California is neither walkable nor affordable.

>walkable
I'm not sure why you can't drive, but I suspect that might be easier to deal with than trying to find somewhere worth living that is truly walkable.

It gets to a point where driving feels like smashing your own skull with a hammer repeatedly. I would assume that's where op is at.

>>Philly
NO. Not a good idea. It has a lot of biking infrastructure, but it's a miserable place, even when compared to Pittsburgh. Which might be a better choice for you overall if you pick the right Borough, but be prepared for a lot of hills and stairs and only if the labor market is compatible with your career path. There are almost no tech jobs there.
>>Albuquerque
Not walkable. And the driving was obnoxious due to poor roadway design. It's also gone considerably downhill in the past 15 years as the crime rate has skyrocketed due to mismanagement.
>Tulsa
I have no familiarity.
>>CA< (is anywhere there livably cheap)
No

I get it, but there are tradeoffs for walkability even if there was a city in the US that did it halfway decent. You get to choose which hammer you smash your skull with, at best. For example, I grew up in a country that pioneered public transport and I would rather a journey take twice as long than deal with the inconsistency and discomfort of trains.
I know it's not what OP asked, but it's easier to just drive.

I already posted about this, so search for walkability and bikeability.

Cars are expensive to maintain. Insurance is expensive. Gas is expensive.

PHILLLLYYYYYY best city known to man. Cheap, fun, easy and small. Stay out of north philly. West is aight before 48th street.

I can drive and have a truck and have been driving my whole life, if I had infinite money I would live in manhattan or brooklyn and preferably goes days or weeks without having to drive.

So a middle ground like Philly or even pockets of other cities that are walkable is what I'm looking for

Please stay at home. We dont need anymore people at the moment.

Chicago has some pretty cheap places, and a pretty good transit system (just stay away from the blacks)

>>33198808 (OP)
Forget those shitties. The best places to live in the US are Detroit/MI, Baltimore/MD and Chicago/IL. If you're looking towards CA, I suggest Inglewood, Oakland and LA (in that order.)

Is this a joke

You can just get a Comma Ai and have your car do 90% of the driving.

There is no place in America that will suit your tastes 100%. You'll have to accept change if you want to live here.

walkable places that dont have a crime problem and don't require you to be a student are more expensive

>WAH THINGS COST MONEY
That's adulthood.
Public transit isn't free either. You either live right next to your job and can walk/bike there, or you just factor transit of some kind as a part of your living expenses.
Be content with a shitbox and pay minimum coverage insurance on it. You'll be out less or the same as you would when compared to public transit and you lose less of your time each day due to the added flexibility.

>Suggesting Detroit or Baltimore
Only if you love meth/fent

I lived in nyc from 2019-2022 in a shared apartment in queens 5 minutes from the subway that cost $750/month in rent.

>>33204895
how much would you estimate that costing in 2025, and how many people did you roommate with
