This sounds really weird to me. Where I’m from, suburbs try to distinct themselves from the city by using arbitrary landmarks, like railroads. When they gain this distinction, they are able to separate even more using taxes and schooling to create a deeper division. From my point of view, including these suburbs into the city is practically better than the trend of segregation.
- john_the_writer 4y agoI tend to disagree here. The isolation reduced travel between, which could in turn cause those burbs, to build their own stores and libraries. My closest gym is 8km away. My closest corner store is about 5km. I have a McDonalds at the 1km mark, but that's about it. I def don't want my kids riding their bikes along the strode to the "corner" store. Now. for playing. We have a 60km road, and a river. I can tell my kids to stay inside those and know that most cars traveling in there are local, so driving a bit slower. I wish we had a community center/library around here. I'd love to meet my neighbours.
