If people can work and live anywhere they want, they want nature.

This is a huge generalization and you seem to imply that would mean populations spreading out into semi rural areas. Studies have shown people are happier with access to nature, but you seem to forget green spaces, parks and tree lined streets exist. I loved living in a walkable city and absolutely would again if I could afford it.

I know parks exist, that doesn't mean the city is right for everyone. I'm glad you would love a great walkable city, I think they're great too. Do you think that people would enjoy raising a family in a studio apartment?
