So Europe is having its own version of White flight? Don't get complacent, abandoning your city centers is only a temporary solution. Next you'll move further and reinvent suburbs.
I saw a before-and-after photo on Twitter where some European le walkable city had more and more personal vehicles parked next to the buildings. Cars packed into narrow cobblestone streets meant for foot traffic.
Some guy (correctly) points out it's due to all the Diversity™ in public transit and got called a le racist.
Imagine how bad things must be for people living in Europe.
"O you who know what we suffer here, do not forget us in your prayers."
Pretty normal actually =] Turns out you can have peace and quiet in city outskirts if you dont mind driving for your groceries once a week.

I still think about that post from time to time.
Cant really abandon something I never had to begin with. Suburbs have always existed as attractive alternative to noisy city centres.
