I would have moved long ago from that town. However, I would like to see the sidewalk the OP is riding on. Sometimes we envision sidewalks being crowded with people, dogs, cars etc. However, I've seen sidewalks next to the highway and there isn't anyone using them! Maybe the OP can tell us the street he uses before we all assume the worse.
