You see one apartment building. A property developer sees room for 100 apartment buildings.
What nature? I have to drive 2 hours to see nature. Bring on the houses.
the simplest solution is to stop having so many babies. population reduction is critical to quality of life.
I just moved from an apartment to a house.
If the apartment had the same floor space and the city actually accommodated my hobbies (I need a large garage to work on cars and finish fixing a boat) then I would’ve gladly stayed.
However. Apartments above 60m² are rare and expensive, and all garages/industrial sites are unfavorable because you can put another bloc or supermarket in there. The cities became living hubs for corporate workers whose entire lives can be crammed into a 40 meter apartment and their only entertainment is a depression rectangle or a gaming console.
