Now I'm trying to imagine, but one can still breathe and there's little or no traffic right?

no there is tons of traffic and crazy foot traffic. That’s why I hardly leave my block. There are lots of friends shops in town and it’s the far end of the street so I don’t see crowds in my daily life.

Once I approach the station it’s relatively busy. And if I go to a more popular area it’s crowds everywhere. At night or on the weekend it’s a much more mixed crowd but something like this at the station all day every day

Crowds is a constant headache when living in a populated area. Noise anxiety 😪
