yes bc this is not a two-way relationship; good urbanism means small buildings close together, but small buildings close together don't automatically mean good urbanism

For me, houses sitting on 60’ wide lots in my neighborhood are just a bit claustrophobic.

Even when Baltimore pretended to be a major city, housing density varied greatly from neighborhood to neighborhood. The same is true here. Densepack housing doesn’t make a city “major.”

ya no kidding you can have nice walkable towns even with under 1000 residents but you'll find fewer spacious lots in highly-demanded cities (which makes them major--not just their raw population size)pic.twitter.com/2KdcyTp9lL

Just because they have a small population doesn’t mean they’re small. Of course, knowing your neighbors too well can be a problem. Fences work well for that.

I mean the house sizes; you said 60' lots felt claustrophobic

The claustrophobia is not from the houses but their occupants. Hence the fence.

There’s physical and mental claustrophobia.
