It was not a matter of avoiding, my parents had a seasonal house on the historic side - no sidewalks but also little traffic. My uncle had a house in district 1. No sidewalks, first 2 decades that he lived there not much traffic then last decade more and more traffic more and more dangerous to walk on the street. I didn’t like that. So I looked on Google map where exactly the sidewalks, pools, anything I’d like to walk to, are located. It was not the ONLY factor in the selection of a house, but these days I’m thankful I did.
