When I lived in Panama City Beach before I moved here a few years ago I walked everywhere except work. Grocery stores, bars, etc. averaged around 22,000 steps a day. I may average around 4,000 here. (Note I worked a sit down job when I lived there as well)
Aka yeah, infrastructure and location impact my health greatly.
Edit: come to think of it I actually stopped to help a construction worker putting new sidewalks on front beach road at one point. His workers slacked off and left early for the day. Asked if he needed help and he threw me $100 for 2 hours of work and told me if I came back he’d pay me to be their manager. I was already employed elsewhere so I turned him down, but it was a unique experience for me.
