Apparently citydwellers in the US are walking 15% faster than they did in 1980
that's the result of some cool research ...
... by academics who acquired video from four major pedestrian areas in big cities, taken in 1979-80 ...
... then compared it to video from the same precise spots in 2008-2010
Other findings:
- people *linger* less
- they're more likely to be alone
