Oh I feel you. I’ve spent a decent amount of time in the southern US. Lots of wide open spaces and cities built on massive scales.
There won’t be any immediate fixes for these places. But there are steps that can be taken. And plenty of cities that are more densely populated, even in the north, Midwest, and west coast are just as terribly designed. Those are what infuriate me most. Los Angeles just makes me mad. It’s a giant concrete jungle full of absolutely necessary cars and it doesn’t need to be that way. 1 in 35 Americans live in LA County and yet it’s one of the worst cities in terms of public transit.
