Yes, since the 1980s. I didn't realize that "bike-free" was a thing back, but I didn't own a car until I was in my late 30s. Oh, wait, I had one for a year or so in my late 20s, but I let it deteriorate and it was eventually towed away. I'd really prefer living without one, but it's very hard in LA. Easier if you don't have family, kids, commitments, etc.
