Balancing Taxes and Income in Suburban Development

The disproportionate balance between infrastructure and streets in suburban environments, along with declining taxes and the departure of wealthier individuals, leads to a worsening suburban decline. Suburban development patterns require constant tax increases, and a decline in real estate values and other sources of tax revenue, along with the departure of industries, can make it difficult to sustain the built infrastructure. This emphasizes the importance of mixed income communities in all contexts to achieve a more balanced and resilient development pattern.
