[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No one wants to pay 800k for a townhouse where your packages will get stolen[/quote]

My packages aren’t stolen.  BUT even if they were, I’d choose that over a one hour commute via car.  So would most millennials.  [/quote]

Most “second” and “third” tier cities do not come with a one hour commute by car. People in Richmond walk to work. Those cities are less crowded so commute times are null.[/quote]

I can’t (job here) and don’t want to move to Richmond.  I also find it hard to believe that many people in Richmond walk to work.  [/quote]

People in second tier cities all drive to work from the ‘burbs.  They drive everywhere because very few live downtown.[/quote]

And the very few who live downtown still need to drive everywhere. See: Atlanta. It's just not built to be a walker-friendly city either for pleasure or purpose. If you want to 'walk' you can drive to their version of the Tyson's Food Hall/Mosaic and then within the interior - enjoy walking. But if you want to get to say Whole Foods - you need to drive from your posh gated neighborhood into high traffic with 4-6 lanes of cars, and into flat-top parking lots built to house hundreds of more parked cars.

Nothing about it is geared to the health-conscious, walking millennial. Even the sidewalks are limited. [/quote]
