> Cities are not where the hearts and minds of Americans are People don't want dense, urban NYC, I get that, but that doesn't mean they want a lonely McMansion development either. Maybe they want a more urbanized suburban town, with just enough walkable amenities. I think people can have love for a town or a neighborhood. In general though, the best American towns are unaffordable as usual.
