It may not get over 32 (90) much here SMS but the humidity sits at 75% and higher all the time, so that can take it out of you more than 40 (104) with dry heat might. Even at a "cool" 24 (75) here at night the humidity is still at a minimum of 75%.
Stacey I know quite a few people here who walk to work, most are single, but some are couples with a one or two bed place, they selected their apartments based on their workplace being close. They don't do a run or brisk walk to work but grab a coffee on the way and enjoy the more relaxed lifestyle here. They also do not need a change of clothes.
Oh, and they have a lot of their nightlife walking distance too. Prices are doing strange things right now so it may just be an option for you.
