I walked a mile to kindergarten (in 1949), half a mile to 1st through 6 grades in South Gate and Norwalk, CA. After that I rode the bus, although I did walk the 2 miles home from high school and ride my bike all over Downey, CA in the late 50’s/early 60’s. So, is the world a more dangerous place in the 2000’s … or is it just a greater perceived danger?
