These articles are fairly interesting. I grew up in the city and god willing plan to continue to live in a city. The suburbs has always been a little scary to me in that all of the houses look the same and that they can build a whole block in like one week. It just doesn't seem natural! Anyway, thanks for the food for thought....I know some of the people in the articles wish they had "thought" more before they moved out there.
