I was really struck by the interviews asking whether people walk anywhere, and everyone was saying 'no, I even drive to the convenience store'

You wouldn't find that in most cities in Japan for sure. Even places with worse public transport, people still walk to the local stuff. Making it too easy to drive makes everything else suck
