I suppose that it could be interpreted that way, however the point of the tax rate being &#x27;progressively&#x27; designed is to encourage &#x2F;both&#x2F; low rents and more space for rent (as a way of reducing the taxed assessed against the property value).<p>Urban planing is also supposed to include parks, recreational facilities, and a generally vibrant mix of entertainment types near a population.  A utopic city is supposed to be &#x2F;better&#x2F; than rural lifestyle because of increased opportunity of all types.  Having grown up in the suburbs, the only opportunity that affords is disenfranchisement; which is what I also hear of the rural areas.
