Most major downtown districts in the country have more than one subway stop. They're usually placed convenient enough that most people can walk between their place of work and the stop quite easily. If it's raining, they have this neat invention called an "umbrella". If it's snowing, there's something else you put on your feet called "boots", and most people wear another thing called a "winter coat".
