The medium density townhome I lived in had more green space accessible to me than the single family home I'm in now.
Turns out 2 large yards are plenty for even 100 families, and lawn care is super affordable when split 100 ways!
- lotsoweiners 4y agoThat sounds terrible. I have a yard with a nice block wall and privacy hedges growing over the top. I have a pool, spa, 100s of plants in my garden, every type of bbq contraption you can think of, a large tv and other games for lounging and best of all, I decide who besides my family can be there. I don’t have random teenagers, homeless people, or quincenaras with mariachi bands in my backyard.
- com2kid 4y agoI'm talking about medium density urban housing, preferably on mass transit lines and in walkable neighborhoods. My car gets under 100 miles of use a week. Excluding commuting to work, during the summer months I literally do not have to drive if I don't want to. Within walking distance of me there is a public library, 2 bakeries, 3 grocery stores, a public pool, a wading pools, 2 very large parks, 1 of which has equipped with grills, and 1 smaller neighborhood park. If I want to ride a bike, and extend my range out to all of 3 miles, then that list gets absurdly long. I don't even live in a dense part of Seattle, I just happen to live in the city proper.
