[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How over crowded is it? Alexandria is not that big a place. If all can be served by 1 high school, that's more fair for everyone[/quote]

They density is like 13,000-14,000 a square mile they keep putting buildings in like this:

If they're not putting in low income housing they're repurposing office buildings low income housing.

They made the busses free, they have free basic income, free internet and free food. The road diets made it impossible to travel by car here unless you want to sit in 40 minute traffic driving 4 miles. The schools are passed capacity. The sewage system is passed capacity.
They have passed on the cost of the new sewer system and massive new schools onto the residents by increasing personal property taxes. So the people with money and nice houses are moving, selling and people taking residence in the low income housing are moving in in droves. Imagine that. Now according to the police and the last few years of crime reports, the crime is though the roof.

All this doesn't not make a nice, safe little city does it?
