A few notable people in advocacy world are arguing that traffic deaths are killing way more people than the coronavirus. Please stop.

Go ahead and bake your neighbor some cookies this weekend. Do it for yourself. You deserve it.

The federal government modestly cut back on their massive subsidy of expensive homes and bad local development practices, yet it's starting to squeeze some places.

"Professional economists have no clue about how to promote economic development; specifically, economists have no idea why rich countries became rich in the first place." Truth, but it won't keep us from spending untold sums pretending otherwise.

What is going on, ? New funds are needed, yet you say: "Our community is growing, but our funding isn't growing enough to keep up." Then why are you growing! More importantly, why have you chosen such an unproductive way to grow?

More efficient construction techniques were supposed to make housing more affordable. Instead, homes just got bigger. Now there are many seeking to go the other way.

Cities in the heartland of America are waking up to the fact that not only are they insolvent -- they lack the wealth to maintain all they've been induced to build -- but they can improve their finances by improving their quality of life.

“Part of what we do at Strong Towns is give people a sense of, ‘we can do this,” Marohn says. More great coverage of the Strong America Tour.

Some things just go together. Peanut butter and chocolate. Kittens and Youtube. Antique cars and antique development pattern.

Riding a bike in traffic places one in this nebulous place where ambiguous social norms -- do I yield, do I not -- increase danger for everyone. The answer to this problem is satisfying simple.

"[County Executive] admits he's basically a political prisoner to townships that want to expand their tax base by turning farm fields into cul-de-sacs and residential builders that want to go about their business of turning farm fields into cul-de-sacs."

More powerful than any sketch, photo, or rendering is to authentically experience a place and allow our natural intuition to be our guide.

California has the nation’s worst housing crisis. It’s also the place mired in the worst gridlock when it comes to how to respond to it.

In a place where nearly everyone drives, living as an afterthought of the design process is needlessly full of indignities.

A centralized government-led building style and a centralized market-led development style delivers a very similar end product, and it's not the one that people want.

This week's entry by : One city will tear down a historic sacred space to house our excess material goods. There's a parable in there somewhere.

If that doesn't work, maybe take a cue from the book. I think their proposal (allow incremental growth everywhere, but limit it to small increments) might be palatable to more people.
