suburbs are a huge waste of land and oil and account for most of our pollution problems.

modern western society has made animal husbandry and farming/gardening hobbies.  I wouldn't have it any other way.  cows are expensive and smell unpleasant and I just hate getting dirt under my fingernails.


join a food coop you fucking hippie.  or you could move to rural oregon and live amongst the creek people.

There used to be a time in the suburbs, when people actually let their kids play in the front yards.  You know, white picket fences and all...but it has become an area used to display that the homeowner either has the money to pay someone to sculpt it or that they are so "together"that they can sculpt it themselves.  It's all about status, whether they can really afford it or not.

There is a place just north of here called paradise valley, it's one of those places where you drive down the road and the trees form a huge living archway. There is very few homes along the road so it's nice and quite. To get some land down there by a river would be ideal for me.

Wait.. now I'm confused. Do you WANT to live in a place like New York where everything is crammed together or do you want to live in a place where you can grow your own food? It seems the OP is trying to make two contradictory points.

lol i know, i just like teasing cleveland

i'm not sure what you mean by "they get shit on" though. I feel like a lot of urban areas' problems were manifested from their own policies.

No matter what anyone says, rust and toxic spills are still less attractive attributes of an environment than most other things.

If the financial market leaves NYC I could see the public works slowly corroding away, its executives caving in to corruption and mafia. Eventually the whole city will become slum-- except for certain isolated extremely wealthy neighborhoods.

here in the UK we have allotments run by the local council. I have 150 sq.m  that costs me £40 per year to grow lovely veggies. I live in a 2 bed flat so I only have communal areas. fuckin love my allotment. Below the red line is mine. I grow potatoes, French beans, sweetcorn, leeks onions, beets, carrots, broccoli, cauliflowers. I have 2x apple trees, 1x pear tree, 1x plum tree, 6 blueberry bushes & various other bits & pieces that will grow throughout the year including winter. The kid is my 4 year old son who loves it up there as well. Jay get yourself one of these dude.

Actually, the minorities are quite nice.  It's the lazy white trash next door that are annoying.

That looks cool as hell! Here the council would just sell the land to developers.

If i lived in an area with a lot of foreclosures i would definitely petition to have some homes knocked down and the land turned over to the city for something like that.

Its the law over here n the UK if 6 or more residents petition the local council they have to try to find land for allotments for the local community. I fucking love some of our laws here.
