Mine is about 80% roads, and that is not by choice. I used to live in Scottsdale, AZ, and 95% of the commute was on an MUP. These days, I get a couple of miles up that old MUP, and I really enjoy those moments. I really miss it. I could go 2-3 miles with no intersections at all. Much of it goes under and over the big streets. My goal is to live there again someday. I just couldn't afford a house there at this time. ...A big part of the real estate value in Scottsdale is access to the MUP and the multiple connecting parks. When lived there, I had no need for a car. In the desert, property near that MUP is as close as one can get to "beach-front property." Take that to your city planners.
