But why don't we just build them in cities and parking lots especially since they want them within 10 miles of communities? I understand cost but this makes sense to just put them into cities and use the unused land to expand or use for farms and other things vs wasting land to build only solar farms.

You do what you can with what you know though.

Yes, I'm not saying don't do anything, just that given what we do know, nuclear is probably the better ecological option here.
