Nice parks are one of the amenities that can be put in a "15 minute city"; the nicest city I've ever lived in, Brisbane (in Queensland, Australia), had beautiful large parks within easy access of the downtown areas.

By contrast, currently I live in a suburb, but it doesn't really give me a nature fix when I need it so I have to go to elsewhere anyway.

Oh for sure, suburbs have to be fixed as well, but having a loud family with thin walls isn't so great in the city either. There's a balance that needs to be struck.

If that is what you are worried about, then isn't the easy solution to build thicker walls?
