As per your footnote, LA reminded most of Australian sprawl in how it’s all spread out. Brisbane, where I live, sounds big, but the actual city is rather small

As per your footnote, LA reminded most of Australian sprawl in how it’s all spread out. Brisbane, where I live, sounds big, but the actual city is rather small — and way less dense than central LA!
- JBlue42 8y agoHaven't down there yet but was really surprised by this photo collection in The Guardian about Australian suburbs: https://www.theguardian.com/cities/gallery/2018/apr/10/sydney-urban-sprawl-suburbs-pictures-photography-andrew-merry https://www.theguardian.com/cities/gallery/2018/apr/10/sydne... Quite surprising how closely it resembles some of the US, especially Southern California, in the sprawl, car culture, and surburbia. Then again, I hear Melbourne and Brisbane are quite livable with better public transit options.
