It's not free of cars (there's plenty of them there), but public transit is good and you can live your life without owning a car. The main requirements: a) you need to be comfortable with living in a small apartment, b) you shouldn't have any interests outside of the city c) stick "one day - one errand" rule. YMMV, but I felt essentially locked inside a big city and hated it.
