Unironically agreed. Suburbs suck and apparently they're also bad for the environment.

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected]

Thanks, forgot about that community after transitioning from Reddit.

almost: car-centric suburbs suck, other kinds are generally perfectly fine.

Like there are many suburbs throughout the world built around public transport and they're great, my fave is one to the northeast of gothenburg that is just a bunch of high-density housing and a tramline slapped into the hilly forest. Same population as my town and everyone living there has like a 10 minute walk to the forest at worst, and most people have a 5 minute walk to the tram.
