I can’t get from the article what the habitants of Poundbury do. Looking at wikipedia [0] there’s around 180 local businesses, which doesn’t seem to be a lot for a whole town.
If the point is to show a real world city functioning around Charles’ ideal, it seems to be pretty far off yet. It still seem weird to have a city with a completion date.

- jhbadger 5y agoThere's only 3500 inhabitants, so "town" is rather generous (even if it may legally be one). So 180 businesses seems about right (even a bit much).
