  1. Its the “sprawling nature” and sort of “wide open” spaces that make Indianapolis so attractive. Other cities would KILL to have this problem. We have never been a “high density” area and people here have never liked it. Density will come whether we like it or not. I have been all over this country and Europe and density has too many problems to even address.
    And as a general rule we don’t use mass transit that much and probably won’t for the foreseeable future or not in the way the “urbanists” would like. Indianapolis is its own “personality.” Don’t try to change it.

    1. Nah. It needs to be changed and there is nothing attractive about urban sprawl. More people would use mass transit if it were more convenient/better designed. Did you miss the part about Indy originally having one of the most extensive transit systems in the country?
