Suburban sprawl is out. In order to decrease our footprint on the environment, which is God's loving gift to us, and to create a great efficiency to help others and our daily routines, we need to live in compact, yet spacious towns. Compact meaning that an entire town of 10,000 to 15,000 people could live in an area of about one square mile. Spacious meaning that each family could enjoy owning an apartment of about 2500 square feet.
The town areas can be spacious with beautifully paved plazas and floral parks, wide roads and easily accessible shops and amenities.
Shops, restaurants, and other services should be on the first floor of each apartment building.
Other manufacturing buildings, hospitals, emergency services, municipal buildings, and entertainment centers should be located towards the middle of town for shared access.
The town areas can be divided into parishes with Catholic churches and schools central to each community.
Some athletic fields can be located at the edges of town near the schools.
Pathways around the town for walking, and appreciating God's gift of nature are needed.
