Agree completely. Density can be wonderful (see paris) or miserable (see kowloon walled city) Like anything else, it just has to be done well.

- mikk0j 14y agoAgain, there are sides to that. Paris is one of the few places more expensive than SF, and the quality of the density can be a subjective one. I for one dislike Paris and the kind of density it creates (comparable to London, just smells worse).
- raverbashing 14y agoYes Not to mention London and Paris have a very good public transport system In the Bay Area you have Caltrain and company shuttles mostly.
- krakensden 14y agoAnd BART and Muni and AC Transit and WestCAT and... But yes, the SF<->SV corridor is Caltrain and company shuttles mostly.
- geogra4 14y agoI guess that's true. But I don't think anyone will tell you they don't want to live in Paris because of the 'crushing population density' or whathave you. Nor will you have people in San Francisco saying they don't want to become the next Paris. In a lot of people's mind there's only one way to have a high population density. And they're just incorrect.
