Life is a major challenge for the young, old and poor who don’t have a car, can’t drive or don’t live close to public transportation. The U.S. population under 14 and over 65 will grow from 104 million in 2011 to 125 million in 2020. These groups would be well served if all their daily needs could be met with a short walk. Better yet, The Townlet makes it an interesting safe short walk.
When trips outside The Townlet are needed those without a car can use a vehicle from the car sharing program or take The Townlet super bus for longer trips. The Car Sharing program is part of a larger collaborative consumption program. The Superbus is an express bus that Townlet commuters use to travel to jobs in a nearby city.
Many residents own cars but their daily use is minimized.
