I live in a car-centric city with close-to-zero public transportation. Not having adequate parking options is immediately a deterrent for me to go to a place, and I’d rather not go unless it’s a very important event that I can’t avoid.
To add to it, drivers are often actively hostile to bikers in these places for some reason. I live near a university so it’s a little bit better, but it still kinda sucks.

That mindset incentives places to build bigger parking spaces, making the city more car-centric.

I’m sorry, but biking 15 miles (home to downtown) in 95F/35C+ temps with little to no bike lanes in my city is just not safe.

That’s sucks I’m sorry
Phoenix? Sounds like Phoenix. Actual urban hellscape.
Sounds like any American city really.
