I doubt it's like that everywhere, but some cities/townships do consider the sidewalk YOUR property & YOUR problem.

In NYC it the sidewalk is considered YOUR problem but it is not your property. My property line actually ends at the base of the steps leading to my front door. There is a front yard that extends further but it can be "recaptured" at any time by the city without compensation as it is not my property. For this reason I refuse to put up anything other than the cheapest chain link fence I can find, unlike my neighbors who have spent $$$$$$$$$ on brick and stone.

As for the sidewalk I am responsible to maintain and repair it but I do not own it. I actually consider this a violation of the fifth amendment since the city is effectively confiscating my property (money and concrete) for public use without compensation.
