Giving brainliest help!!! Inefficient, sprawling land development is overtaking much of the U. S. landscape. In the last 60 years, people have been moving away from cities
and populating areas known as suburbs. These neighborhoods directly encourage the use of cars to get to work, school, malls, or other
businesses and activities. As a result, traffic congestion and increasing air pollution due to car emissions are problems for many U. S. cities.
Additionally, many urban neighborhoods inside the nation's cities have become sparsely populated, with few businesses or attractions. By
focusing on strategic, efficient, aesthetic, and economical land use, cities can revitalize areas that have fallen in disuse. These efforts can revive
communities, attracting people to cities to live, work, and play.
