This is the part most forget, urban infrastructure, while expensive at time to maintain, is significantly more efficient because so many people use it at the same time.
Suburban infrastructure is massively expensive to build and maintain, since its not being supported by many users. Suburban roads, sewer, water, etc. are highly subsidized by the government, that's the only way it would work to build.

Great post.
You are going to trigger the frick out of the suburbs bros when you call them out for the fact that their mere existence is heavily subsidized by those of us who reside in the city.
