maybe you should actually do some reading up on what people are doing with their landscaping these days. It's called xeriscaping and a lot of municipalities are encouraging it these days because of fears of water shortages. It doesn't mean that their entire backyards would be gravelled but they wouldn't be sodded either. Before you go making assumptions that people have wood chips and gravel in their yards because they are lazy maybe you should think about other factors such as allergies or just plain old personal preferences..
