[quote=Anonymous] Coming from a capital city in Europe, and being generally informed on urban development outside of the US, I can attest that concerns about global warming and population density have pushed certain priorities to the fore in most metropoles around the developed world: 1. Dedicated space for public and shared transport, EV charging stations, fines or outright bans for the more polluting vehicles in some cities; 2. immense pressure to fill housing needs, sometimes resulting, through developers' bribes to politicians and stakeholders, in more luxury housing than what's really needed: low-income housing. You can't please everyone. Choices have to be made. I would be fine with having more rent-controlled housing if cities were tougher on crime. I am fine with being perpetually annoyed in traffic if it means people can use more public and shared transport. [/quote]
