You know what also houses 0 people, Central Park. And I mean permanent housing.

4Hey I lived in Siena! Incredibly beautiful and charming city

1yes but we need cars i don't understand how we're supposed to live without the infrastructure
-1I apologize if you're being sarcastic, but this is the point. We need cars because we designed our cities around cars.
If we designed around foot traffic and rail, we wouldn't need (as many) cars and could do with less expensive car-centric infrastructure. Not just interstate exchanges, but also the massive parking lots and garages that are required, gas stations and car repair/oil change places on every corner, etc.

I would rather die than live in an apartment.
-12The better designed and better laid out cities are, the more affordable and less intruded-upon rural areas are. It's win-win.
6An apartment in the suburbs of Nowhere, Texas? Agreed. An apartment in the middle of a beautiful, historic downtown city center that has been developing for hundreds of years? I could give the car up.
