Isn't that just because people live in the suburbs? I think your example proves the opposite point to the one you're making - people would rather live in walkable mixed developments than have their destinations zoned away from their accommodation.
- ctdonath 5y ago“Walkable” doesn’t give much room for options. 30 minutes walking covers far less area than 30 minutes driving.
- beaconstudios 5y agoHave you ever lived or travelled to a walkable city? You'd be surprised how much you can fit into a walkable area. In the UK basically all the cities are walkable just due to historical inertia; you can fit plenty of city into walkable areas. For bigger cities like London there's the underground system to travel further out.
