Total civil collapse, do your bit and start cutting power lines.
What if rising oil prices just mean people want to use their cars less and live closer to town?
Leaf blowers
You’re thinking small time here
Bring back the segregation.
There is literally nothing wrong with sprawl. Only edgy special snowflake cityfags dislike it.
Get rid of minimum setbacks and single use zoning. More public transportation.
It's both inefficient and soulless.
It's a massive waste of resources and time, it promotes throwaway culture, it costs us untold sums of money, and motor vehicle deaths are on par with gun deaths in america.
There's unironically everything wrong with it, when you actually think about it.
The architecture is shit, too.
t. loved suburbia until I actually researched it
Its comfier than the city though
Wait til you visit an actual comfy city and you'll see.
I have, and I hated it.

>Have to deal with other tenants in my apartment making noises
>small living quarters
Yeah, real nice.
Go to a rural area. But suburbs are a shit compromise. Basically the ultimate bluepill for the masses, manufactured by the government's social engineering programs.
I would love to live out in the country someday
>on par
Lmao aren't they like 20 times more?

end cars
What if we just stopped subsidizing them over every other mode of transportation like we've been doing the last 80 years?
Right now we have developers building pedestrian and transit-focused projects in our downtowns and there's a lot of market value in that
wow goy how dare you suggest such a thi theres market value in that?
human civilization is at the end of its rope, anyway
Yep. Urban economics is an interesting thing.
If you go into a forgotten industrial city neighborhood and build some nice houses, offices and restaurants, you’ll add value by building some more housing, offices and restaurants nearby. That’s the power of mixed use development.
The free market is fixing it

But I think a lot of these McMansions should be sectioned into duplexes or apartments. Wouldn’t be a bad idea honestly, local governments might not allow it though. Boomers would get their panties in a twist.
Lower tax rates for 3 to 4 stories buildings. Mark the ground floor for commercial use for every other building.
That would be my guess anyways
