− | According to certain experts <ref>[http://www.ted.com/talks/kent_larson_brilliant_designs_to_fit_more_people_in_every_city.html] | + | According to certain experts <ref name=Kent Larsons TED talk>[[http://www.ted.com/talks/kent_larson_brilliant_designs_to_fit_more_people_in_every_city.html]]</ref> <ref name="Claude Lewenz at VillageTowns">[[http://villagetowns.net]]</ref>, a city works best if everything people needs for their daily chores are within 10 minutes walk. A city with 10.000 people has to be divided into smaller villages where every village contains all basic shops and other daily necessities like a doctor. |
− | + | Clause Lewenz also remarks that the upper limit for a village is 10.000 inhabitants. Above that, government and bureaucracy becomes increasingly difficult. So a hard limit, a physical wall around the village itself, is needed. So city works best if it's divided into smaller villages. | |
