It’s a very interesting topic.
Beside work locations everywhere I’ve ever lived has been “15 minute city” the village I started in had everything beside each other and every city thereafter has been the same.
The issue I feel is simply being told it’s a thing, we all live it daily but being told you’re doing it plays on people differently.
The people who it will affect are the post covid suburbanites. “Gentrification” is rife in my home town with people from Edinburgh moving out, driving the market up by circa 30% at minimum yet continuing to work, socialise and shop in Edinburgh an hoursish drive away taking no part in local community.
