I think the only comparison that's reasonable is what are the plans going forward.
Every city has a different history, geography, climate, culture, industry, growth patterns etc. that make general comparisons pretty worthless.
Even to say we have a history of 'sprawly' development. Probably 1/4 of our city was built in the 70s and 80s. Maybe half since that time. It's neither right nor wrong, it just is. What's right or wrong is what we do with the circumstance we have.
