        There’s a lot of bullshit in zoning to begin with. Why exactly can’t we have mixed commercial and residential areas in suburbia? Slap some apartments on top of grocery stores, bakeries/restaurants, and shops; or is forbidden to have much of anything within walking distance of homes?

          Mixed use zoning is considered the gold standard of city planning, and it’s why housing in Tokyo is so cheap comparatively

          I think we both know it is. No one knows why tho.
