Nice post but why do we want 70 million more people?

This is what Joel Kotkin calls the New Suburbanism. These new suburban villages, he says, will combine with revived older suburban villages, like Naperville, Ill. <edit- I lived there for a while>, and Fullerton, Calif., to create an "archipelago of villages" - a new sort of landscape that is neither city nor sprawl.

It's all kind of amazing: market-tested cohesive institutions to counteract the segmenting and niche-ifying forces of the age. It's not anti-suburbia; it's go-go suburbia growing up.


Joel Kotkin is a lover of the LA form of urbanism and is trying to spread it throughout the country. Don't listen to him.
