Well I grew up in an urban residential area in a small (2 bedroom) house with a small yard. It was probably a commute community back in the 30s but all the houses. Where I live now was farmland converted to suburb in the early post war years now it is urban residential with big yards which as far as I can tell nobody really uses anymore. But it is highly walkable there is a grocery store I can walk to (but don’t do major shopping there) the current light rail expansion will terminate just over 1.5 miles away. Have a library, community center, etc all nearby.
If at all possible the next house will have minimal or no yard.
