    I personally hate the idea of living in an urban area. But I think more suburban areas really need better public transport as well. Whether that’s buses, trains, people pulling others around in a little buggy or something.

      Personally I love my urban area, walk to my favorite restaurants, bars, parks, without ever needing to spend money on gas. But yes, in suburban areas the basic “hub and spoke” pattern of getting commuters into the city is a necessity. Even in smaller cities in the US we desperately need trains going from park and rides into the city.

      Plus not only commuters, but it’s so nice to go out drinking and no one has to worry about how we’re all going to get home safe.
