Southern Californians. I think Northern Californians (bay area) are much easier to get out of their cars.

I think the prevailing opinion of most Californians now is "we'd like to, but can't do it as often as we'd like."

180,000 cyclists and peds did get out of their cars to walk or bike on the most recent "CicLAvia" event [1] [2].
