foot traffic promotes commerce
i should hope it's obvious why
it's more for small businesses than massive car and fuel companies though
there are qualitative benefits too
on a basic level, walking is good for the population

the problem is niggers though
you can't have a walkable city when there are no-go zones
the market's solution to that are hoas and unaffordable rents but this isn't good
the other problem is the existing infrastructure and the lack of any drive to create walkable cities from the top
it would talk a concerted effort for 20 years to manifest them and that will just isn't there

I grew up with a local grocery store across the street from my house with a full butcher shop + bakery. I was so spoiled by that convenience that I have always lived within walking distance of a grocery store (at a very high rent markup unfortunately). I really wish that was the norm for American neighborhoods. It is so convenient and makes it really easy to cook for yourself.

Mixed thoughts on this. If I were a real estate speculator with $10m burning a hole in my pocket, I would absolutely buy up land in tier-2/tier-3 cities and redevelop them into mixed-used housing communities with walkable spaces, lots of greenery, dedicated bike infrastructure, etc. The issues are that
> 1. the barrier to entry is ludicrously expensive so you'll likely only be selling to upper-middle class families (same idea as luxury condos)
> 2. you are beholden to the zoning laws in your city and it might literally be illegal to build walkable communities
> 3. there are a significant number of people who DON'T want to live in dense spaces, they WANT their suburban hellscape because their primary concern is being as far away from other people as they reasonably can be, so as a real estate developer you need to find ways to market that community beyond just "we've got bike lanes" because that isn't going to be a make-or-break kind of amenity when people are buying homes. For these same reasons, you probably aren't going to be successful with this kind of project in a town of 10,000 people because there's just too much space for cheaper housing.

You do realize this is due to the loss of hard money and the degradation of currency, don't you anons? You have read The Bitcoin Standard, haven't you? Haven't you? When the world is sucked dry through usury this is the result. Also Look at how the price of automobiles have skyrocketed in the last ten years. The reason? from the 1950s to the early 2000s costs could be brought down as the car degenerated from metal to plastic. Now everything on the car that can be plastic already is. Hence nowhere to cuts costs remain and the price skyrockets. Your money is unsound and it buys less and less as time rolls on.

Our biggest issue started when manufacturing went to China so USD started leaving the US and never came back.
Everything was sustainable back when money just kept circulating around the US while slowly being acoomulated by the rich which helped.
Some say the unions are what started this all since the rich people decided to tell workers to fuck off instead of giving them their moneys worth but of course its a combination of a ton of things like a rising population and competition both internationally and internationally causing more supply and less demand
