terrible idea. more pollution, overcrowding, noise

  1. Higher density = less driving = less Less pollution 2. Overcrowding doesn't even make sense. Thats just a subjective opinion. 3. Cities aren't loud cars are loud[0] [0]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CTV-wwszGw8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CTV-wwszGw8

    Overcrowding isn’t an issue because it’s a subjective opinion? What? By every measure cities are more crowded than suburban areas. Every big city I’ve been too has been dirtier than low density suburban areas of equivalent wealth. Cities are definitely louder than suburban streets, if they’re in cul de sacs and not next to a main throughway.

      Yes, cities are (almost by definition) more crowded. What is subjective is when they become overcrowded. By a pragmatic metric (say, infrastructure spending per capita) that's not happening in cities even most Europeans would consider overcrowded. They're also louder, but that noise is contained within relatively small pockets. Fans of quiet suburbia need not worry.
