The person on the left is carrying bags, the one in orange is a delivery driver and a couple of people are wearing backpacks. Aside from car brained, Damaris is also blind.

@figstick @chiliedogg speaking of, one of the bigger challenges is the desire to be farther from other people. I think half of the lawn crowd is less about the lawns than just being farther from neighbors. Or at least that’s what I experienced with folks who moved to Staten Island and New Jersey, basically trying to get away from places like Brooklyn where it was too crowded. They wanted more distance. For those folks, you need to accommodate some level of isolation which nobody talks about.

Absolutely. I work in the planning department of a municipality that’s a tiny enclave for the super-wealthy. The average new home here is over 10 times the price of the regional average. I recently issued a permit for a 5,000 square-foot guest house with a tennis pavillion on the roof.
Our residents don’t want neighbors. They don’t want a sense of cummunity. They want their special enclave with a police force that exists to keep out the homeless people from the major city that surrounds us.
I don’t live here of course. I have to drive 90 minutes every morning because my annual salary won’t cover a week’s mortgage for some of these houses.
