Yes the private automobile and its associated infrastructure of highways, strip malls and suburbs. Many US cities had more soul before WWII when people did not move around as much and most people did not own a car.

They were all more or less built in the same century.

Is there a single American metropolis worse than Houston?
Texas is not dominated by mexicans the frick are you on about? Most mexicans from Texas are wayyy more American and not beanery than mexicans from California. There’s no car culture either besides dodge charger challenger bullshit and ford f150s.
Frick off with the racism butthole, this is supposed to be a new urbanism thread.
We're trying to make communities more inclusive here, not more divided and fractured like they are now.
Driving through Houston is crazy lol, the highways make no sense. It's pretty bad in any major city in Texas but it struck me as particularly bad. I blacked out in a ghetto there and didn't get robbed though so it's not all bad. Mixed feelings about this hellhole!

There are only 5 real big cities in the US. NYC, Boston, Philly, D.C. and San Francisco. Everything else is an overgrown parking lot.
>there are only 5 real gay cities in America
Fixed
Boston isn't that big, it looks big but is and feels very empty. Lived there for 2 years for work, don't miss it.

The food makes up for it
Brown people culture is culture too. Tejas is dominated by Latino cuisine, music, and cars

You've clearly never been to car shows or drag racing outside the city. It's 60% white, 38% Mexican, and the rest black

I live near Charlotte , still sprawly but at least we are smaller than Houston.

Remember when Houston was nuked in Independence Day?
Houston really is America's shame. The worst aspects of all our culture in one place.
