The Hyperloop was never meant to be built. Elon Musk admitted it was all about fueling opposition to California’s high-speed rail project so it would get canceled.
He never planned to improve transportation; he just wants to keep people trapped in cars.

What you need is a good bus system. With that in place you can live anywhere without a car. A high speed rail connecting major hubs and a bus system (or light rail) is all that’s really required. Bus systems can be deployed for even less money than a high speed rail.
This is feasible anywhere. I’ve lived in fairly small and remote towns in England (Shrewsbury england, population 80,000, for example). There’s a robust public bus system, and a rail system. Living there without a car isn’t just feasible, it’s easy.
