I'm glad more people are moving out of cities. It's not sustainable having more than half the world's population living in cities. But people are moving into car dependent suburbs where you need a car to get around. This strips the elderly and the disabled of their independence. Villages where you can walk anywhere are where city dwellers should be relocating to. As for cities, well, cities in North America are a failed experiment because you need a car to get around them. European cities, where people get around by foot, by trams or by bicycle, are how cities should be designed.

Gay people should be able to live in cities, towns, villages, suburbs and rural areas. We should use our options.

I believe that civil engineers say the exact opposite. I hate cities myself but from a planning perspective there just isn't enough land to give the billions of people in the world their own land.
