This is interesting?
Are large cities (population not sprawl) more expensive to run than small cities? (I dont know?)
If so then as a group we should all pay more when more people are added as there are economic benefits to a larger city. The last person to the party shouldn't be completely burdened with all of the associated costs from their addition as they in theory provide economic benifit.
Also are there reasoanlbe family friendly options in the inner city now? (3 bedroom townhouse for less than 500k, 400k, or 300k). If there aren't any affordable options then really tis is just a debate on whether Childless people should subsidize families or not and not really about sprawl.
