Here's hoping that NY, LA, and other major US cities adopt "Old Parisian" urban planning methods. Wishful thinking.

Because housing is so cheap in Paris.

It doesn't have to be perfect to be better.

Paris has a set of issues like any major city but when it comes to managing urban density it does it broadly better than LA, for that matter so does New York.

My impression is that yes, housing in Paris is cheaper than in LA.

Those numbers are really outdated for LA.
