i think it really depends on where you live - here in seattle being car free is easy, and i commute 30 km to work. (no driver's license, so i either pedal or take the bus or carpool). we live 1 km from the grocery store, and within walking distance of downtown. for big things like furniture, most places can deliver for a fee.
but i've been to atlanta a few times, and it seemed way more car-oriented - although maybe that's because i was in a car. =] same with mobile & montgomery alabama.
while college towns are usually decent for being car-free, there are a lot of drivers not paying attention - young, dumb, and full of cheap beer. be careful out there!
