CityNerd | I Visited Culdesac Tempe and I Have Thoughts @CityNerd | Uploaded August 2024 | Updated October 2024, 3 hours ago.
Tempe, Arizona: a suburb that's more walkable, bikeable, and has better transit than the core city of Phoenix. Tempe is home to America's largest university, AND home to Culdesac, a neighborhood built from the ground up to support car-free living. How's it all working? Let's find out.
----------
CityNerd is on Nebula, the creator-owned streaming service, ad-free! Using my custom link gets you 40% off an annual subscription, and really helps the channel. go.nebula.tv/citynerd
Also STILL available: the Lifetime offer! $300 for Nebula as long as both you and Nebula exist, and a full 1/3 of the price goes directly to support this channel. go.nebula.tv/lifetime?ref=citynerd
And! Gift cards -- get the same deals using my code, but gift a membership to someone who needs weekly (ad-free and promo-free) Nerd propaganda! gift.nebula.tv/citynerd
