Cool. Not everyone gets to live in such a city. And those of us who live public transits cities city, want to leave it sometimes. That requires a car.
And most cities with public transit are unaffordable for middle class people. They are fantastic if you make well over 100K a year, but if you make 40-60K, forget it.
rental costs at the airport are 200-300% of those at non-airport rental locations.
you dont’ rent cars, clearly. you are just making up nonsense. i rented cars for years before i gave up and bought a car, because owning a car was CHEAPER than renting one 2-3 times a month and dropping like $150-200 on every rental.
car renting is a PITA process. 1/3 of the time you don’t even get the car you booked, you get a ‘similar model’. you also need to pay for insurance would more than doubles the rental cost.
I make less than 15k a year but I live in Berlin. I guess I made the right decisions and also got somewhat lucky (not to be born in the US for example). But I guess in the US there would be other possibilities.

If you live in a good city and leave for travel you can still rent a car.
No, you can’t. Renting a car is not a practical thing to do.

The rental services near me are cheaper at the airport.
cool, that’s not true near me. the airport here has a special tax that doubles the rental rates.
in my town a rental is like 75/day, at the airport it’s 150 for the same car.
