It also saves farmland something rural people tend to care about.

Thank you for explaining why suburbs suck. Also, the mass of people flooding an area all at once is just a niceness.

I'd rather live in my own few acres of forest with a creek running through it and a big house.

I would think looking at this comment section most individuals on this sub hate cars, but love homes with large driveways and massive streets. To drive the cars we hate?

Mid-density apartment are a thing, maybe 4-6 floors tall.

Though north america apartment design is another issue IMO. North america apartment floor plates are unfortunately not designed for families. When was the last time you saw a 3 or 4 bedroom apartment?

Edit: I should add, when was the last time you saw a 3 or 4 bedroom apartment that cost less then a full size family home in the suburbs.

Diversity is good. Different types of homes and zoning. Mix of nature and buildings

What if we put an apartment complex and use the rest as a race track ?
