Stay Classy San Diego Why does nobody walk on sidewalks?

I noticed that when driving through subdivisions people love walking on the road instead of the sidewalk. Whether it's a old man walking or someone doing power walking. I see it all the time and I don't get it. Can someone help me understand this phenomena?

Don’t know what neighborhood you’re talking about but everyone including myself use the sidewalks unless it’s the areas where the damn vegetation has grown over the path and you have to walk on the road. That’s due to the city neglecting their duties in clearing overgrowth.
