    There are dozens of suburbs just like this that ban street parking! DOZENS OF THEM!

    Skipping past the overwhelming use case to be pedantic about an edge case is an absolute waste of everyone’s time and energy. It’s entirely unhelpful and painfully prevalent in these parts.

      to add to this private driveways make single family homes even worse for cities and the environment by lowering density even farther. before private driveways were the default homes were much closer to the road and you were just expected to park on the side and cities built that way are way nicer to walk around

        All of what you said is true, but it’s still odd to see a suburban house with no driveway. Odd enough that I’m curious about it, too.

          It’s also the only one without a driveway. Most of the time, these houses are made in batches and are the same or similar to each other. If none of the houses had a driveway, I’d assume they actually were very close to public transit.
