One thing that an outsider in Boulder has to notice is the actual human rights that pedestrians have. If you attempt to cross the street, the cars will actually stop for you, and wait patiently for you to cross.
This fascinates me to no end! In Cincinnati, it’s a bit dangerous to try crossing without the walk light being on. In Manhattan, of course, you’re considered fair game whether or not you have the walk light.
Upon thinking of all of the above for a few minutes, I have come to the realization that I could get used to the pedestrian lights here. In Cincinnati, I might actually walk out into the street without looking, next time I have a walk light.
