    The only way to do it is to have everything in walking distance. Places where things are already too spread out make this very hard to do. People get used to driving everywhere and don’t want to pay to change things.

      Public transit, busses, light rail, etc. Are great. No need for everything to be in walking distance.

      It’s not too hard. It just takes time. A city can change hugely in 50 years.

      And people don’t want anything to change. Until they get used to the new way. Then they don’t want it to change again. But everything always changes. That’s the only thing that doesn’t change.
