They claim that the concrete sidewalk is too hard, and that the asphalt roads are softer and better to walk on.

As a runner, this is true. Asphalt is also smoother than many concrete sidewalks, less deviations/blips/etc. sidewalks are also frequently blocked by parked cars, trash bins, etc. I will run on the sidewalk if it’s on a busy road and it’s safe for me to be on the sidewalk, but I usually just run in the road.
