Every American State FAILING at Urban Planning Explained

Have you ever wondered why your morning commute takes 90 minutes to travel 30 miles?? Or why some American cities keep building luxury condos in flood zones while others run out of water? These aren't just bad luck. In this video, as a real urban planner, I’m explaining the disastrous planning decisions behind the American states that are failing the hardest at city design. From sun blasted deserts to drowning coastlines, these are the real world consequences when urban planning goes terribly wrong... #urbanplanning #urbandesign #explained Texas: The state where zoning is optional, allowing chemical plants next to schools while highways turn into rivers during every storm. Arizona: Building a massive heat island in the desert where walking to a light rail station is a survival game against 115°F heat. Florida: The "sell it before it sinks" strategy, where luxury condos rise on eroding coastlines that insurance companies have already fled. Georgia: Home to Atlanta, a city that treats its subway like a secret and forces commuters to spend two full work weeks per year stuck in traffic. California: A manufactured housing crisis where wealthy neighborhoods weaponize environmental laws to block affordable homes. Nevada: A city of fountains in a desert with 4 inches of rain, where walking is treated as a sign of poverty or insanity. North Carolina: Charlotte demolished neighborhoods to build a concrete loop, turning the city into a highway interchange with banks attached. Tennessee: Nashville exploded with growth but forgot the infrastructure, tearing down culture to build parking garages for party buses. Which state do you think has the worst urban planning? Is there a state I missed that deserves a spot on this list? Let me know in the comments below!

I'm Umut, an urban planner currently pursuing my Master's degree. I'm passionate about decoding the complex world of cities, and I'm here to break down everything I've learned—from university lectures to my travels—into clear videos. My goal is to make the often technical subject of urban planning engaging and easy to understand for everyone. On this channel, we explain various topics like city models, principles of urbanism, some insanely-well designed cities, and American suburbs in a simple and clear way. Of course, topics like Megacity projects, future city models, street patterns, smart cities, walkability, urban design, zoning, public transportation and urban planners are also in our area of interest. If you want to better understand your environment, join a conscious conversation about cities, and explore these living organisms with me, you're in the right place.
