UK and Europe seem to be light years ahead of US these days!
UK and European cities are completely different that most US cities...

They are more walkable, with smaller, purpose oriented food stores. You can't go three blocks in some cities with out passing a bakery, a cheese shop, a butcher, etc...

The mass transit is completely different than in the US...

Supermarkets? Most people in cities walk to their supermarkets...

Motorway services? Great, if you're traveling. Don't help at all if you're commuting to work...

Parking meter charging? You mean run 220 to all the meters all over town?

Unfortunately, none of that will help the MILLIONS of apartment/condo dwellers in cities...
