How can anyone think this is normal???

Mortals never understand the workings of the god emperor

it's highly organized and dense, you can't see any unused patches of land

Shanghai is a much better city than Beijing at least

What place and from what time?

Thank god they are below replacement level

Shanghai 80s vs today

Yangtze River Delta. 1984 - top, 2016 - bottom.

What is the maximum density people can live together without going crazy or animalistic and tearing each other apart from stress? For example, Manhattan has 28,000 people per km2 and they are all bat-shit insane degenerates.

Is there anything factually incorrect about that statement?

Anyway, I can't seem to get an answer on the perfect city density, everywhere I've gone says there's too many variables such as public transport, land type, even the weather. But everything seems to suggest below 10,000 per km2, well below Manhattan.

Most densely populated country is Monaco, most densely populated dependency is Macau, most densely populated city is metro Manila.

manhattan is perfectly normal, especially below 96th street
the new york is cuhrayzee!! meme ended when giuliani took away criminals civil rights and put a cop on every corner

>manhattan is perfectly normal youtube.com/watch?v=U01VwgxXUq8

But none of those cities ever top "best cities" lists, it's always cities like Melbourne with a density of 500/km2 or Vienna with 4,300/km2. Even Tokyo, one of the largest cities on the planet "only" has a density of 6,200/km2, yet it always has a good crime and safety rating. Seems like 10,000 people per km2 is the limit before it gets too dense and people hate eachother, or at least stop caring.

>manhattan is perfectly normal
I don't want to live somewhere where being arrogant, rude, selfish and uncaring is considered normal.

fucking yokels i swear its like you've never seen a traffic jam or people that have somewhere to be

There is nothing wrong with this video. Other cars even let him pass in the end despite heavy traffic

>I don't want to live somewhere where being arrogant, rude, selfish and uncaring is considered normal

That's completely a fucking meme. Have you ever even been here?

Megalopolises are pleb filters. Where some see soullessness I see human ingenuity. Nothing more inspiring than civilization as far as the eye can see.

>Is there anything factually incorrect about that statement?
you don't have to lash out at random people because your sister didn't complement your fedora last week

based canuck

This. Cities are bodies of gods yet to be born

The city with the highest real population density aka population per arable land is Singapore and HK.

Really old picture.

>flag
of course.
fyi every second in an ambulance counts

How is it abnormal?

post a more current one

Yes, I am definitely not the only one to think so, a quick google search proves me right. Even London is better than that shithole. Dirty, smelly, rude, overcrowded and everything was just phony and capitalistic. Everyone there cared more about your money than you, I couldn't wait to get out. Never again. Boston was marginally better.

If anyone is rude and uncaring it's fucking Europeans

it's cold, unnatural, soulless. literal human ant-farms, and best of all, you spend all your money on rent in that shithole

>waaaah i dont like high density lifestyle
why are euros such fucking women?

They got a point tho, most urban cores in America are seriously run down and lack public spaces. Especially when parking lots are 30% of American cities.

im not talking about your average shithole rust belt downtown, im talking about NYC
manhattan has central park and barely any surface parking available

Why did we have to pick grey as the primary color in all our modern structures? Like, what the fuck, it’s easily the most depressing color you could think of next to a yellowish-beige.

Ugly, endlessly sprawling soulless urban hellholes are the future whether you like it or not

god that's so ugly
I love how you can see the one commieblock building design copypasted like a million times

People focus on China, but China is growing slowly, and the government restricts movement into the biggest urban areas. The real urban explosion is happening in India - the Delhi region went from 5 million people in 1980 to almost 30 million today, and rising. If you fly into the city (assuming the view is not blocked by smog), the extent of the development is astonishing. And that's just Delhi - Mumbai, Karachi, Dhaka, Kolkata, etc. are also growing rapidly. Lahore became a megacity (10 million+) just a few years ago, and it's already over 12 million now.

Many rocks happen to be that color.

Also murals are better/more efficient than painting the entire exterior of these monstrous structures.

It's not their fault 90% your country is frozen wasteland

what in the world did he mean by this?

Being the minister of transportation and transit or secretary of urban development and housing in those very large, very high density cities must be some of the most difficult and seriously stressful jobs there is.

Specially in poorer countries with low budget, just imagine what a fucking pain in the ass.

even in high-GDPPC countries like flag-related municipal governments often become swamped with problems they don't have the competence/manpower to solve

I think city growth can be managed well if it's steady and there's plenty of space, but going from 0 to 100 so fast like some cities are doing is just asking to be overwhelmed with core structural problems in the future.
