Maybe it is also because I actually lived in Europe. Having spent 13 years over there taught me that urban neighborhoods all have their positives and negatives. For sure it’s better than a suburb, but that’s a low bar.

It might also be that forcing the question of wealth and class into the urbanist discourse leads to the very uncomfortable conclusion that high- and middle-income households will continue to be disproportionate resource sink even in dense urban neighborhoods. They will still travel across the world for vacation, they can better afford to have children, many will still have cars for weekend trips. They can consume more and often will.
