I recall walking from University & Marsland to KCI and back every day in the 1960s. No it wasn't uphill in both directions but I do recall we used to get a lot more snow than is typical today. Residents for the most part cleared their sidewalks but like today there were quite a few who didn't.
As a teenager it wasn't a problem. But it does get harder as one gets older. And for those of any age who have mobility challenges it's always been substantially more difficult to get around in winter. As I've said before it takes just one person who doesn't clear their segment of the sidewalk to make the entire route impassable.
