    They have plenty of wheelchair users, you just don’t see them because it’s so inaccessible they’re stuck at home.

      It’s hard to make a neighborhood accessible if the whole thing was built 500 years ago so I assume tons of places in southern Europe will have problems. Finland, on the other hand, is very accessible and last I checked, still in Europe.
