<< most prefer the 'burbs.........>>

All places have their pluses and minuses. I think what most people really prefer is real, defined places and real communities, whether in rural towns or sub-urban towns, or in cities. I think the inexorably dispersing, sprawl-driving automobile creates the worst aspects of both the suburbs and the cities. The car will always be a rural necessity--more of a dominating rural need than in cities and well-connected towns. That is the car's rightful place. The worst aspects of suburbs and cities are increasing and the best aspects of them are decreasing, IMO, in part because of the way the hegemony of the car drives the physical and social architecture.
