[quote=Anonymous]This thread is starting to demonstrate that you can find a study to prove anything. The study mentioned from PP is all over the place, though probably just restated not very clearly and not the studies fault. It also gets to the issue of how you define the different economic classes.

So by PP's explanation, if we build enough housing in the city and elsewhere (where, are we building in the city and elsewhere now) lower income people will move to that housing. PP parses middle class to fit the several argument they make. And they love throwing inequities into an argument because you never have to define them. You just salt your argument and walk off nobly with your nose held high.

San Francisco is an interesting example because it has tried to do the exact same thing Mayor Bowser proposes and it has been a smashing failure.

Anyway, I think you just need to look at any of the other dozen or so Corona virus threads on DCUM and see that OP's assertion seems to be bearing out in that people want more space, roads to walk on, parks to walk in, dedicated dog areas, dedicated bicycling areas, wider isled super markets, etc. I am not sure how high rises and densified population solve ANY of the issues people are talking about now.[/quote]
