The normal route I take, with the dangers mentioned is the most minimized traffic/car exposed route available to me. Suburbs are the worst of all worlds; drivers aren’t used to seeing pedestrians yet the density of pedestrians and cars is high enough to constantly cause dangerous situations. Urban is actually safer because people might actually stop at a stoplight (for other cars likely but at least they stop), and rural with few cars is just easier to not be at risk as pedestrian.
