This is not a fad...the un-car way of being is for real...and it could raise a city's property values, I'm lookin' at you, Laguna Beach! :)
Take a walk through Laguna Neighborhoods like the Hip District or the historical neighborhoods in North Laguna and the scene is the same.

Imagine the boost to curb-appeal and home equity if those trashy cars were removed.
