Car Free Chicago


I recently discovered a helpful new website- www.carfreechicago.com. Carfree Chicago is a community-built resource that aims to take the guess work out of carfree living while promoting responsible transportation choices. The site is structured as a community blog; it is written by carfree Chicagoans for other carfree Chicagoans.

It's a great site for the both the carfree and for drivers who drive out of necessity but prefer not to when possible. The site is a great resouce that covers such topics as alternative transit options (car sharing, bikes, Amtrak, Metra, Pace, etc...), carfree excursions, how to deal with going carfree with a family or when grocery shopping and many other relevant topics related to carfree living. Check it out and let us know what you think!

  1. Clare -- Thanks for the shout-out! You and your readers should feel free to help improve the Carfree Guide by registering and editing or adding content (it's an open, wiki-style resource). For example, you could add a page to the guide on car sharing if you'd like, by logging in and clicking "add child page" in the guide. The blog is also open for anyone to post to.
