I would just settle for sidewalks, where I live in the USA it’s just streets with no sidewalks everywhere. I used to live one mile from where I worked and I could barely even bike there because of crazy car drivers and nowhere to go if someone wasn’t paying attention. Rural America is going to be car dependent for a long, long time.
My daughter can’t walk the 1/4 mile to school because it’s on a major road with no sidewalk. So we drive her, every day. It’s bad for the environment and bad for her health.

Cities in America too. I’m currently in Charlotte, NC and the amount of times that the sidewalk just ends is a little bit insane.
