almost: car-centric suburbs suck, other kinds are generally perfectly fine.
Like there are many suburbs throughout the world built around public transport and they’re great, my fave is one to the northeast of gothenburg that is just a bunch of high-density housing and a tramline slapped into the hilly forest. Same population as my town and everyone living there has like a 10 minute walk to the forest at worst, and most people have a 5 minute walk to the tram.
