Despite its vast extent, it's very easy to get around Greater Tokyo--suburbs and all--with your own two feet and a Suicapic.twitter.com/DISqC62Wfe
I wouldn't call that sprawl because services and points of interest are going to be in walking distance due to population density.
proximity to services etc isn't part of the definition of sprawl tho, that's half the point of the article
Google a definition of it and see what you get
I think "low density" and "monofunctional" (I'm reading that as purely residential, correct me if wrong) basically covers it.
That's a good concept, but is "sprawl" the most useful thing to call it? Something could fit that description but be pretty compact
Whereas Tokyo is obv excluded from it, but also obviously sprawling
When you say you have stuff sprawled over the table, or a guy is sprawled out over the floor, the idea is spread out as much as possible
no, just spread out (more is almost always possible!)
