New Orleans is very walkable, especially in centrally located areas like the French Quarter and the CBD / Warehouse District. From there, it's easy to get to other neighborhoods using the streetcar, bus, bikes, or Uber / Lift. If you have any sort of mobility issue, NOLA can be tricky though. The sidewalks are generally in very poor condition, for example. It's also very hot during summer, which can make walking around unpleasant.
