Slum-burbia

I found an article that supports my case for moving into the city. I remember writing papers about this topic when I was an undergrad. I've always been interested in urban development/redevelopment and I've been equally (if not more so) disturbed by suburban sprawl and its lack of mass transportation and walkable areas. If I didn't work in design/writing, I'd be an urban planner.

I think rising gas prices will force people to move back to the city, I don't know how some people are doing it. I fill up once a month and complain about it, I can't imagine doing 2-3 times a week. I would completely alter my finances to move out to the suburbs. Not to mention I completely despise sitting in traffic.
