What Do You Think Of My Ideal City?
If I could create my own ideal city, i would like it to be very nice, clean, lots of green (I think a city needs a lot of green, like grass, trees, etc…), diversity, and very BIG with lots of highways.
Because the city will be very big, I would love to have lots of people maybe 800,000 to 900,000 people in it from different cultural backgrounds, but they must be friendly. There would be lots of businesses and factories that manufacture clothing, shoes, appliances, food, furniture, etc. They would be made affordable to people. Education would be free to elementary and middle school students from tax, but made very affordable especially for students who strive for a higher education; college. The minimum wage would start at 9.50 an hour to help people pay for bills, housing materials, etc. Housing would be quite expensive, because I think that if anyone wants to live in a really nice house, they must work for it because it’s a prized possession. This city would be huge in attractions for family and friends, especially concerts. Entertainment: Restaurants, movie theatres, parks, recreational areas, theme parks, water parks, zoos, etc. This city would be the center for concerts as far as entertainment goes.
This city would be friendly and open minded, and full of opportunity.

I see only one problem. With people earning $9.50, how could they afford the expensive housing? You would need some kind of low-income housing projects for these low wage earners. They probably won’t be able to afford commuting from the suburbs to their place of work in your city.
