@casastorta @freemo I disagree. It may depend on the city, but I'm a lower-middle-class suburb dweller that doesn't mind the city at all. Downtown Orlando is beautiful and clean and nice. And I'm only 15-20 minutes away from downtown. I'm more afraid of Disney, honestly. My biggest gripe with downtown is that I suck at parallel parking.

When talki g about effects on the masses your individual expiernce isnt important... we know from countless psychological studies that people behave worse in high population crowded areas. Even mouse experiments show unhealthy behavior rising when there is overcrowding.
@freemo @LouisIngenthron But cities are typically not overcrowded. Very few cities in the world are New Delhi. Specially American cities are, due to uniquely American ideas of urbanism, wastelands when it comes to density, as we saw during pandemic.
Daily commuters for work do not affect density for living conditions terms because people don’t live on top of the highways.
@freemo @casastorta Yes, and there are equal studies showing how isolation will drive you insane. 🤷♂️
