The transition from rural to urban has been happening for the last 100 years and it’s going to keep happening.
But we can’t just ignore the 15-20% of the population who are currently rural and act like they can just move into a city and it would solve all problems.
If someone lives 20km outside of a city, they are barely rural.
I appreciate the desire to have better public transit whereever we can, but ignoring the existing realities isn’t helpful.
