British Columbia

A mix of housing types ...

I'm gonna guess

• firetrap bungalow sprawl
• firetrap micro-townhouse ranks
• firetrap lowboy SROs

So much kindling. So little density.

Having lived in two of those towns, I can't say whether the mayors know they're making a dumb mistake and ultimately growing their infrastructure capacity requirements in a way that will continue to be incredibly inefficient to fulfill, but knowing something is dumb and doing it anyway is kinda their deal.

Bulldoze the core. Tower anything not reclaimed land. Render more bungalow sprawl into shared and maintained parkland. Enough ot the ticky-tacky sea of moldy bungalows.
