Edmonton tried to fix its housing shortage with multi-family buildings. Some Edmontonians really don't like that. (youtu.be)

I can also bike most places and there's a bus stop 10 meters away from my house. I don't need to rent a car because I can afford one from not spending 90% of my income on housing :D

That sounds dope. Ha, I'll agree my housing isn't cheap and I miss having my own shop, but the community machine shop is better stocked then mine ever was. I can afford a car, I'm just trying to live without one. I will never miss a daily commute in a car.
