The people who want the New South suburban lifestyle are pro-growth themselves and like the setup that the pro-growth politicians created. Ah, I see. I suspected the political leanings of the suburbs/exurbs, but I hadn't realised the political will to enable the development. That does make it clearer. <i.You can't function in most of Dallas without a car, period, not unless you enjoy walking a few miles to get groceries. I remember staying in Dallas for a week, a few years ago, in a pleasant non-chain hotel about 3 miles from downtown. I walked to the centre nearly every day, since there was nothing near the hotel (well, except rather a lot of rather gay bars) and I think I only saw about 4 other pedestrians... Nice little walk, too, since the weather stayed good. Mind you, if I'd had to carry shopping I might not have been so keen.
