That's pretty. Certainly more attractive than a road.

It is quieter and safer. People tend to live outside more and interact socially.

Hmm, I suspect our big backyards and public parks are better at that than those wall to wall buildings and very little space outside them.

Space is not the answer. How it is used is. Big back yards are a waste of space unless they have a function which they seldom do.
They are impersonal like public parks. Like in large estates where most social intercourse happens in a small space. Plenty of people do not like gardens as they require maintenance and are seldom used.

Well in summer in the tropics, no one moves, as it causes too much sweating. And the mosquitoes and crocs and cassowaries and snakes want to kill you too.

Why have a back garden then. My wife's cousin lived in a cage all day as did the neighbours.

Because it's not always summer, and only a part of australia is in the tropics.

My backyard is my little haven, use it every day. Mostly for pissing when I'm drunk, but that's using it, right?
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

Well, for us it's mostly about having a garden. Lots of flowers to attract native honeyeaters, lots of veggies to eat, and somewhere to have a BBQ...
Nurse, where the fuck's my cardigan?
And my gin!

I can imagine Jim. I was a keen gardener at one time but I never miss it now and thank goodness I dont have one as bending down proves quite difficult for me these days.

Woonerfs could do without the cobblestones.
