wellington was the only exception, and if it wasnt cramped on an mountainous peninsula, it would have been spread out like every other city there
it also was the only city where i enjoyed walking around. others were beautiful, too, but i can only see so and so many little wooden houses before i get a bit bored, and i dont want to explore cities by driving through them

the main reason, as well for almost completely nigger-free new zealand, is cheap land and the fact most of this shit was planned after everyone already had a car. no reason to build compact under these circumstances, and also quite naive, because you cant really change anything if driving suddenly becomes too expensive for most people
