    3.2 miles

    That’s 5 km! Such a (relatively) dense development should be the first housing next to the park, second only to amenities and public transit access to the public space.

      That would be Socialism! You can’t expect us to care about the poor or elderly or disabled!

      No, this is Poor People Housing: tiny homes on small plots stuck onto leftover land behind a ‘real’ development, underneath high-voltage power lines, next to some retaining ponds and a four-lane major commuter route. There’s not even enough poor people there to justify their own bus stop, though they might get added in if they’re already on an existing route and it won’t affect the sacred timetables too much. There’s some commercial space on the corner; if they’re lucky they may get a Dollar General or other poor- person store, otherwise every place they need to get to will require a car.
