You'll also notice, in that Solo Stove abomination of a state, a distinct lack of cyclists. Because for huge chunks of the year, it's way, way too hot outside to walk or ride a bike the incredible distances necessary to go anywhere.

It should be noted that the season for comfortable walking and biking could be greatly extended also with the addition of street trees and a reduction in asphalt.
