Isn't that a good thing, if you want people to have everything they need in their own neighborhood, rather than needing to commute 20 miles for a Costco and another 10 miles for a latte?
I'd rather have smaller (potentially walkable) communities than rows and rows of suburban housing where people just get in their car to drive elsewhere when they need to do something.

I just did an insanely massive purge, and this is one of the few books I kept. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Pattern_Language https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Pattern_Language https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_design_pattern https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_design_pattern
