    While I generally agree with the sentiment, the distinction is if there’s outside seating it’s either a park, or owned by a restaurant. It’s not like the blend of the street, sidewalk, businesses you see in Europe

      I agree with your specification.

      The kind if mixed use, areas that are walkable, have seating, various kinds of shops… usually only in a few districts of a few fairly large towns or large cities.

      There is seating, sometimes, in like… restaurants in basically a strip mall type set up… but they’re like islands, surrounded by acres of parking lots.
