Because folks in rural areas (thinking of a friend who lives in western Oklahoma) have to drive 20 miles or more to do shopping/business.

The folks who are really screwed are the exurbanites who decided to buy a house 35 miles from work because they wanted the high class lifestyle that they couldn't afford if they lived within 10 miles of work.

And then there are those of us that bought a house within 3 miles of work and first had work move 12 miles, then a 30 miles, away.
Bummer.
But, adaptation is a wonderful thing, and with a motorcycle it's fun too!
