It’s not lack of space in Texas that causes that
In Houston, though?
A lot of land that is otherwise economically valuable is necessary to use to enable the massive flow of personal automobile traffic between and through areas.
Imagine living somewhere designed for people
To be fair, the population is probably a little more than 0. I’m sure there’s some homeless folks living under it.
You know what also houses 0 people, Central Park. And I mean permanent housing.
You can make any point if you cherry pick data hard enough.
Hey I lived in Siena! Incredibly beautiful and charming city
I mean, who’d want to live in the center of that thing? smh
Siena, Italy? yeah fair enough
Zero? Really? In Houston? Surely there are at least a few sheltered under that.
yes but we need cars i don’t understand how we’re supposed to live without the infrastructure
I apologize if you’re being sarcastic, but this is the point. We need cars because we designed our cities around cars.
If we designed around foot traffic and rail, we wouldn’t need (as many) cars and could do with less expensive car-centric infrastructure. Not just interstate exchanges, but also the massive parking lots and garages that are required, gas stations and car repair/oil change places on every corner, etc.
How much CO2 you willing to pump out redesigning America?
I would rather die than live in an apartment.
