This is me. I live near the centre of an English town that, due to local geography, isn't far from some quite rural areas and is well-connected via rail links to two decent cities (20-30 mins). I can drive, but I've simply not needed a car. Other than the odd inconvenience (trips to IKEA or day trips off the rail network) I love it.

EDIT: Google's recent inclusion of bus services in the public transport routing information for Maps has made it even better. Cheers for that, Google!
