This one isn’t directly about cars, but it does go some way to explaining the mentality of people that buy giant trucks that have never been used for any sort of work. That is, people who live in cities but identify as “rural” people.
Academic sources linked in the video:
Rural states are financially unsustainable.
Texas doesn’t having zoning, but still an ocean of single family homes. thats what sells, and multifamily homes need to be near services and foot traffic to be in demand.
i’m surprised the giant companies buying up many thousands of houses don’t rent them out by room.
you wana know how we can reduce all those single family home oceans? we make them pay for their own infrastructure
Sounds like texas should fix their zoning code. These problems have been decades in the making, but it seems every politician and city wants to keep that status quo and keep the suburban scam going, even as north america is in a housing crisis with an ever increasing bubble. Nobody is brave enough to pop or even deflate the bubble
