Which is worse, cities or suburbs lol.
I think suburbs can be redeemed if and only if zoning laws are entirely removed. Would be awesome to have a flock of milk sheep doing mowing instead of having lawns.

I live in a housing development where most of the lots are 1-2 acres and people have chickens, cows, horses, goats...
This is the way.
That's one way. I sorta like the European model of tightly packed housed or multilevel buildings (well built so sound isn't an issue) surrounded by land. 1-2 acre lots can be just as bad as suburbs depending on how they're laid out/mindset of people. Actually, it's not lot size that is the problem, it's mostly mindset. People who enjoy mowing shit loads of acres have a mental disorder lol. 3 of my neighbors mow more than 5 acres even though Ive offered to pay them to graze it.
