What about some of these retirement communities like Sun City, Arizona: https://www.google.com/maps/place/Sun+City,+AZ/@33.6291865,-112.2934111,14z/data=!4m5!3m

  Apple Maps link: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=33.6292+-112.2934&ia=web&iaxm=maps https://duckduckgo.com/?q=33.6292+-112.2934&ia=web&iaxm=maps These look pretty cosy.

    This site claims to create American-style cities, but includes images with radial circles that extend about seven blocks, which is not at all something most people associate with American cities, but do associate with, say, Spain. https://maps.probabletrain.com/images/heightmap/map(66).png https://maps.probabletrain.com/images/heightmap/map(66).png The urban density in these images is also more commonly found in Europe than America. Which is fine! It's a generator for European-style cities, and it's neat! But so far, only low-density western desert cities have anything like 7-ringed wedges like this, and I suspect that most people, like me, didn't know those existed there before this thread.

  Gotta say that design is pretty cool looking. I like how they put a golf course on the perimeter!

    I'd chalk it up there with the "deigners" who draw swoopy lines for parking lots that look great on a map and are a nightmare to use.

  Well-found! I had no idea those existed, but they do seem to fit the radial nature of the procedural designs. Of course, they're much, much, much less dense than the designs, but the generator is still neat. Just not very "American-style" IMO.
