We live in a wildly different world now. Cars, shopping centers, everything is bigger.

Is that bad? Depends on your viewpoint. As far as I can tell, people are buying what they like so the customer is happy.

There are side effects we don't like, but I can see attempting to solve that could have its side effects.

Eventually, the market works this out. We got sick of sprawl some people moved back to the cities.

Houses are too big? Some people live in much smaller homes closer to the city or even tiny homes.

The market isn't allowed to work it out because of single family zoning
