It’s easy to get your steps in living in a city. I average 8k-10k steps on a typical day just by existing. But the moment you leave the city and go anywhere car centric, it’s nearly impossible to get even 5k :(
There’s a lot of things you can do though. Big ass Walmart parking lot? Park in the very back. Office on the 4th floor? Take the stairs. Shit I’ve started practicing taking the 30 flights of stairs up to my office personally.
There’s a lot of little things you can do that add up.
I think you’re really overstating things here. I’ve lived all across the spectrum from dense urban to acerage rural and I think it’s a lot more feasible than you’re depicting to go for a walk around the block in a wide variety of living spaces.

i like taking the stairs (assuming I don’t have unwieldy equipment balancing on the arm where I have the keys) and if I can 2 stairs at a time.
