Ray Atkinson

I write about urban and regional planning, with a focus on making car-free living achievable and sustainable. Since 2014, I've shared insights on transportation, real estate development, and the practical side of building walkable neighborhoods—drawn from my own experiences, including purchasing a home and transitioning to a car-free lifestyle.

My work covers sustainable transportation solutions, scenic highway initiatives, and strategies for living without a car. I explore what it actually takes to make neighborhoods where people don't depend on vehicles, using real examples from my journey.
