The local brine solution is a salt *technically* but it's not straight rocksalt (NaCl) that's typically used elsewhere.
The brine goes mostly on freeway hills and overpasses. The side streets generally just get plowed or we wait until it melts (shortly).
We don't normally get the extreme rusting.
I had a Civic for 11 years and a minivan for 18 without serious rust problems.
There's a Mk1 RX7 I've seen around with serious algae on the exterior, but he parks under a maple tree and doesn't wash off the pollen.
I think it's some sort of life challenge for him. "F-YOU Nature"
