> I don’t know where you are from, but LA is actually representative of large swaths of the US

I actually grew up in LA, and now live in the foothills outside of Boulder on a large forest property — which is nothing like LA or Vienna.

I haven’t run into many areas of the US reminiscent of LA, and the US is enormous. It can’t be painted with a single (and such a reductive) brush.

Land wise the US is enormous, yes. But given the topic at hand, when discussing “car-centric” and “sprawling” metro areas, LA isn’t that distinct in that regard. And there are a large percentage of Americans that live in one of them.
