I am into the small yard thing only because of the amount of space a larger lot consumes. We American’s have gotten into this mind set that bigger is always better. If we keep building houses with huge ass yards, we’re going to have to commute from Murrieta to SD to have a place with a yard. O wait, we already do that. It’s just not smart planning when it comes to making a sustainable environment. America has built itself into one of the biggest wholes in the world. It will be interesting to see how we dig ourselves out. I’d much rather have a small yard, like Abby Road in England, and then have a central place where I can go hang out, feel safe, and see other people living. People just need to get it out of their heads that they need all this space to live. Not that I am moving to Del Sur anytime soon, but they do have great parks. And that’s where you should enjoy your open space playing time and dog crapping.
