We habitually spend a lot of time in daily routines, and we hear about cool stuff from the same sources. As such, we tend to lack awareness of things that don’t have the capability to advertise broadly. So, what’s something you expect many people don’t hear about or consider for use in their life?
Walking around the neighborhood.
It’s good exercise, you can meet your neighbors, and sometimes you can pick up something someone is throwing away that’s in good condition.
100% this.
It changed my life, literally from being barely able to walk a few steps (even getting the mail at the door, I would then had to rest for the entire day) to be walking miles almost every single day of the year. It all started by walking a few feeble steps in my neighborhood, one day after the other. And it took me less than a year to get back into, let’s say, a functional shape.

This seems like a great way to get shot if you don’t look like the right kind of person.
The thing about the more affluent areas is they generally don’t shoot people there very much.
They are, however, more likely to call the cops to report a “suspicious person” “loitering” around the neighborhood.
Then couch-hunting turns into threading the needle on a law enforcement interaction on eggshells, because maybe the officers who pull up are scared of you and have received more “warrior” training than de-escalation training.
