yea agree with
solstice .. if you just drive around in urban enviornments that's not hilly, (i.e. no ski trips or no cottage trips) RWD is fine provided you put on good winter tires.. I've had AWD cars for most of my driving life, and can't really recall many situations where having it really saved me in the city. Most common situation you'd need it is if snow plow just went by the side street or outdoor parking lot and there's some snow piled up in front of your spot. But at that point you need both ground clearance + AWD and prob a shovel too
OP looks like chris harris talked about the same point as you... in your markets it's needed
