Why We're Here

Carfree.com is dedicated to the proposition that urban life is not only possible but also better if transport is organized so that private automobiles are not used on the city's streets.

We are a part of the World Carfree Network

Acknowlegements

I thank the following people for their help in making this site possible:

    My parents, Ann and Vance Crawford
    Arin Verner for endlessly turning the crank
    Piper Hollier for proof-reading and critique
    Countless others who have helped to improve this site over the years

Technical Information

Most of the site is designed for 640 x 480 (or higher) resolution, but City Design requires at least 800 x 600 for best viewing. TrueColor (24 bits, "millions of colors") is strongly recommended.
