"content": "\u003cp>[dropcap]L[/dropcap]ast year, I interviewed a woman named Cheryl Taylor. The 63-year-old wore pink bunny ears on top of her head. She was living on a San Diego sidewalk after being evicted from her home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She said the people living in the luxury high-rise across the street didn’t know her story. They’d never asked.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They just yelled, “Bum get out of here, you’re just dirty trash, you’re not welcome here,” according to Taylor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then this spring \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11660885/having-a-job-or-two-or-three-doesnt-mean-you-can-afford-a-place-to-live-in-california\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">I interviewed Chad Bordes\u003c/a>. He was working 16-hour days as a driver for Uber and Lyft and selling cars online. He was also living in his car.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“How did we get here?” he asked. “How did we get to a point where we devalue human life to where it’s OK if we step over homeless people, or you’re sleeping in your car, it doesn’t matter.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His words stuck.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I know a lot of Californians worry about homeless people in their neighborhoods creating health risks, committing crimes and driving down property values. I also know countless people in the state toil endlessly to help the homeless — shelter workers, advocates, police officers, paramedics, regular citizens and politicians. And I know many people living on California’s streets feel hurt, dejected, invisible and excluded by the rest of society.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This interplay got me curious about our collective capacity for empathy. I looked to science for some answers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Empathy is probably as native as any other sensory modality, hearing or vision or taste,” said William Mobley, an M.D. and associate dean for Neurosciences Initiatives at UC San Diego.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He explained empathy is feeling another person’s experience. Compassion is acting on that knowledge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We learned how to work within our tribe by being able to read each other’s feelings,” Mobley said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11693306\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11693306\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/CherylTaylor-800x624.jpg\" alt=\"Cheryl Taylor talks about what it’s like to live on the streets of San Diego.\" width=\"800\" height=\"624\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/CherylTaylor.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/CherylTaylor-160x125.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/CherylTaylor-240x187.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/CherylTaylor-375x293.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/CherylTaylor-520x406.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Cheryl Taylor talks about what it’s like to live on the streets of San Diego. \u003ccite>(KATIE SCHOOLOV/KPBS)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Empathy can be seen on brain imaging.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If you look at the parts of the brain that are activated when we feel pain or internal distress or sadness or even surprise, the same regions in the brain are also activated, at least they overlap, with regions that are activated when we see pain or surprise in another,” Mobley said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I told him about Kaye, who wanted only her first name used. She’s an elderly woman I recently met in Santa Monica. She’d been living on a $1,000 Social Security check each month. When the city started giving her a little money to cover her rent, she was overjoyed because the extra money meant she could help the homeless man across the street.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I am able to give $10 away,” Kaye said. “That’s just amazing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s empathy,” Mobley said. “It’s biblical, right? The woman who had nothing gave it all away.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mobley said research shows, in fact, that people’s experiences can foster empathy and so can the way we talk about people who are struggling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That point reminded me of Riverside Mayor Rusty Bailey. He refuses to call people living on his city’s streets homeless.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They’re our neighbors,” Bailey said. “They already live here. They’re our neighbors without homes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">'Without empathy, the human species will not survive.'\u003ccite>Dilip Jeste, UC San Diego neuropsychiatrist\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Mobley said Bailey’s description is a perfect example of the potential to change mindsets by changing the language.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Your brain is saying, ‘Wait a minute, these are our friends,’ ” Mobley said. “Well, that means they’re people that we like, that we support. We want to be a part of what’s good for them.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And that kind of thinking — practiced enough — can spark a mental chain reaction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Empathy changes everything,” Mobley said. “It absolutely prevents me from ignoring or diminishing the value of another human being. And if everybody is of immense value, how can I ignore anybody and suffering? And if I can’t ignore anybody and suffering, well then, the whole world changes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I asked Mobley Chad Bordes’ question: Why does it seem that so many folks lack empathy?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It may just be that we’re so darn busy,” Mobley said. “We’re beset by other stresses. It’s hard for us to really be the empathic people that we want to be and maybe even aspire to be. Empathy is challenged by pressure. It’s much easier for me to make myself available to listen to somebody with an issue or problem if my schedule isn’t burdened by 25 other things.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Emiliana Simon-Thomas, science director of the Greater Good Science Center at UC Berkeley, said data suggest that our “empathic muscle” weakens from the time we’re born.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11689282/californians-try-to-avoid-homelessness-by-short-circuiting-eviction\">Californians Try to Avoid Homelessness by Short-Circuiting Eviction\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11689282/californians-try-to-avoid-homelessness-by-short-circuiting-eviction\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/IMG_1483-1000x750.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>“There are certain things about modern human experiences that incentivize a weaker variety of empathy,” Simon-Thomas said. “There’s good evidence that, in fact, when people living in these highly complex, incredibly populated communities that we live in now, it puts certain challenges on our innate capacity for empathy.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Researchers are looking at whether empathy can be inspired.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A number of studies have shown meditation can encourage it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Practices like Loving Kindness Meditation peel back some of the learned habits that we may have developed that suppress our innate empathic capacities,” Simon-Thomas said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Talking about empathy can awaken it, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Empathy is a personality trait, similar to optimism and resilience,” said UC San Diego geriatric neuropsychiatrist Dilip Jeste. “And all of these traits are partly genetic, only 35 to 50 percent, which means that 50 to 65 percent is not genetic, which means it can be modified, which means it can be improved.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said even keeping a gratitude diary can stimulate empathy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Across the board, as people’s lives get more stressful, corporate leaders, educators and health care professionals are using training programs focused on building empathy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We need it for our survival,” Jeste said. “Without empathy, the human species will not survive.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It is a lesson many people, especially homeless people, have learned for themselves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Remember the woman with the bunny ears, Cheryl Taylor, whose address was San Diego’s streets?

I also know countless people in the state toil endlessly to help the homeless — shelter workers, advocates, police officers, paramedics, regular citizens and politicians. And I know many people living on California’s streets feel hurt, dejected, invisible and excluded by the rest of society.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This interplay got me curious about our collective capacity for empathy. I looked to science for some answers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Empathy is probably as native as any other sensory modality, hearing or vision or taste,” said William Mobley, an M.D. and associate dean for Neurosciences Initiatives at UC San Diego.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He explained empathy is feeling another person’s experience. Compassion is acting on that knowledge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We learned how to work within our tribe by being able to read each other’s feelings,” Mobley said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11693306\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11693306\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/CherylTaylor-800x624.jpg\" alt=\"Cheryl Taylor talks about what it’s like to live on the streets of San Diego.\" width=\"800\" height=\"624\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/CherylTaylor.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/CherylTaylor-160x125.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/CherylTaylor-240x187.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/CherylTaylor-375x293.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/CherylTaylor-520x406.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Cheryl Taylor talks about what it’s like to live on the streets of San Diego. \u003ccite>(KATIE SCHOOLOV/KPBS)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Empathy can be seen on brain imaging.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If you look at the parts of the brain that are activated when we feel pain or internal distress or sadness or even surprise, the same regions in the brain are also activated, at least they overlap, with regions that are activated when we see pain or surprise in another,” Mobley said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I told him about Kaye, who wanted only her first name used. She’s an elderly woman I recently met in Santa Monica. She’d been living on a $1,000 Social Security check each month. When the city started giving her a little money to cover her rent, she was overjoyed because the extra money meant she could help the homeless man across the street.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I am able to give $10 away,” Kaye said. “That’s just amazing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s empathy,” Mobley said. “It’s biblical, right? The woman who had nothing gave it all away.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mobley said research shows, in fact, that people’s experiences can foster empathy and so can the way we talk about people who are struggling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That point reminded me of Riverside Mayor Rusty Bailey. He refuses to call people living on his city’s streets homeless.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They’re our neighbors,” Bailey said. “They already live here. They’re our neighbors without homes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">'Without empathy, the human species will not survive.'\u003ccite>Dilip Jeste, UC San Diego neuropsychiatrist\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Mobley said Bailey’s description is a perfect example of the potential to change mindsets by changing the language.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Your brain is saying, ‘Wait a minute, these are our friends,’ ” Mobley said. “Well, that means they’re people that we like, that we support. We want to be a part of what’s good for them.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And that kind of thinking — practiced enough — can spark a mental chain reaction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Empathy changes everything,” Mobley said. “It absolutely prevents me from ignoring or diminishing the value of another human being. And if everybody is of immense value, how can I ignore anybody and suffering? And if I can’t ignore anybody and suffering, well then, the whole world changes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I asked Mobley Chad Bordes’ question: Why does it seem that so many folks lack empathy?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It may just be that we’re so darn busy,” Mobley said. “We’re beset by other stresses. It’s hard for us to really be the empathic people that we want to be and maybe even aspire to be. Empathy is challenged by pressure. It’s much easier for me to make myself available to listen to somebody with an issue or problem if my schedule isn’t burdened by 25 other things.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Emiliana Simon-Thomas, science director of the Greater Good Science Center at UC Berkeley, said data suggest that our “empathic muscle” weakens from the time we’re born.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11689282/californians-try-to-avoid-homelessness-by-short-circuiting-eviction\">Californians Try to Avoid Homelessness by Short-Circuiting Eviction\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11689282/californians-try-to-avoid-homelessness-by-short-circuiting-eviction\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/IMG_1483-1000x750.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>“There are certain things about modern human experiences that incentivize a weaker variety of empathy,” Simon-Thomas said. “There’s good evidence that, in fact, when people living in these highly complex, incredibly populated communities that we live in now, it puts certain challenges on our innate capacity for empathy.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Researchers are looking at whether empathy can be inspired.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A number of studies have shown meditation can encourage it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Practices like Loving Kindness Meditation peel back some of the learned habits that we may have developed that suppress our innate empathic capacities,” Simon-Thomas said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Talking about empathy can awaken it, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Empathy is a personality trait, similar to optimism and resilience,” said UC San Diego geriatric neuropsychiatrist Dilip Jeste. “And all of these traits are partly genetic, only 35 to 50 percent, which means that 50 to 65 percent is not genetic, which means it can be modified, which means it can be improved.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said even keeping a gratitude diary can stimulate empathy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Across the board, as people’s lives get more stressful, corporate leaders, educators and health care professionals are using training programs focused on building empathy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We need it for our survival,” Jeste said. “Without empathy, the human species will not survive.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It is a lesson many people, especially homeless people, have learned for themselves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Remember the woman with the bunny ears, Cheryl Taylor, whose address was San Diego’s streets?

After all, this region has a legacy of regional projects like the Save the Bay movement, which halted large-scale polluters and stopped cities from paving over the San Francisco Bay. Our regional parks are another example, which preserved the hills of the East Bay and the coast of Marin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So what if we looked at a regional approach to housing? Could we save millennials, seniors, locals and future locals like we saved the bay?\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Creating a City\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>We’re creating a hypothetical city. Let’s call it Reid Land (named after the question asker).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What are the boundaries of Reid Land? This is an oversimplification, but let’s say it includes all nine counties of the Bay Area. That would include 101 cities, around 7,000 square miles and an estimated 7.7 million people. For comparison, the city of Los Angeles has almost 4 million people on about 470 square miles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The budget of Reid Land would be huge. According to the \u003ca href=\"http://www.bayareaeconomy.org/files/pdf/BayAreaEconomicProfile2018Web.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bay Area Council Economic Institute\u003c/a>, if the Bay Area were a country, it’d be the 19th largest economy in the world — smaller than the Netherlands, larger than Switzerland. Money collected from regional taxes would be spent regionally.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You would be thinking about where are the best places to grow in such a way we’re really getting development around our transportation infrastructure so that people aren’t going to drive as much,” Terplan says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11691530\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-11691530\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/92733663_d2efaa401c_b-1020x651.jpg\" alt=\"Sunrise at an Oakland BART station\" width=\"640\" height=\"408\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/92733663_d2efaa401c_b-1020x651.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/92733663_d2efaa401c_b-160x102.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/92733663_d2efaa401c_b-800x511.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/92733663_d2efaa401c_b-960x613.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/92733663_d2efaa401c_b-240x153.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/92733663_d2efaa401c_b-375x240.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/92733663_d2efaa401c_b-520x332.jpg 520w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/92733663_d2efaa401c_b.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sunrise at an Oakland BART station \u003ccite>(Thomas Hawk/Flickr)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>In this fictional scenario, the city might take underutilized land and build tall mixed-housing developments. Each building would have affordable housing, and there would be businesses and green space. Bike lanes would cross these super-dense neighborhoods and a train stop would be conveniently located at each neighborhood center. These trains could whisk you across the whole region, so traffic would be reduced and people could move about Reid Land easier and cheaper.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Just think about all the things that New York City accomplished that didn’t happen here — 24-hour rail service connecting across these places,” Terplan says.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Drawbacks to One City\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>There are drawbacks to Reid Land.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For example, “If all transit was merged together, you might not have as much bus service in San Francisco as you do today because you would start spreading those resources across a bigger geography. And so for people that rely on transit in San Francisco, they would see that as a loss,” Terplan says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another consequence of amalgamating all these cities is that it would change voting demographics. People might not have their local interests represented. For example, urban constituents might be outvoted by suburban constituents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I would point to Toronto as a city that kind of did this to a certain extent. They expanded outward and had a much larger city. And at times you would have a mayor who represented a much different perspective from the traditional urban core,” Terplan says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Metropolitan Toronto amalgamated its six boroughs in 1998, it was very controversial. Twenty years later, people still debate if it was a good decision.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s also not clear if creating a single city would solve our housing problems. City council members might still find ways to block projects that would threaten the character of their neighborhoods, and vocal residents could continue to find ways to stop projects they found objectionable.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In fact, this whole thing is pretty unrealistic — 101 cities are unlikely to give up control to a single governing body.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[baycuriouspodcastinfo]\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Alternatives\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>We don’t need to have a single megacity to solve regional problems.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We have regional institutions that are thinking about big-picture issues facing the Bay Area. The problem is they don’t enforce plans or dole out consequences if cities don’t comply.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An alternative might be that regional plans and goals for housing become binding for cities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One idea is a cap-and-trade program, but with housing. Each community would have a certain amount of housing and affordable housing it must build, and if a community doesn’t want to see that development in its own backyard, it could give money to an adjacent community to build that housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Perhaps, most realistically, it might just mean more collaboration, like in the case of transportation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“How would it work if all the rail systems in the Bay Area really felt like one? You don’t have to merge them all together. But from a customer, it’s got to feel like a merger,” Terplan says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are collaborations currently underway. \u003ca href=\"https://mtc.ca.gov/our-work/plans-projects/casa-committee-house-bay-area\">CASA\u003c/a> (The Committee to House the Bay Area) meets roughly once a month with an aim to build actionable political consensus among Bay Area leaders. That said, in all likelihood, it wouldn’t support a single Bay Area city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What does the question asker, Reid, make of all of this?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If California is growing at X percent a year, we need X percent more gas stations we need X percent more day cares we need X percent more grocery stores. … We need X percent of everything. And so it’s how do we convince each area to grow at that rate? Or how do you do the cap-and-trade … which is pretty cool.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Thanks to Ben Bradford for his reporting on Redwood City.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Correction: the drive from the Getty to Manhattan beach goes through multiple cities, not just Los Angeles.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[baycuriousquestion]\u003c/p>\n\n",

After all, this region has a legacy of regional projects like the Save the Bay movement, which halted large-scale polluters and stopped cities from paving over the San Francisco Bay. Our regional parks are another example, which preserved the hills of the East Bay and the coast of Marin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So what if we looked at a regional approach to housing? Could we save millennials, seniors, locals and future locals like we saved the bay?\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Creating a City\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>We’re creating a hypothetical city. Let’s call it Reid Land (named after the question asker).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What are the boundaries of Reid Land? This is an oversimplification, but let’s say it includes all nine counties of the Bay Area. That would include 101 cities, around 7,000 square miles and an estimated 7.7 million people. For comparison, the city of Los Angeles has almost 4 million people on about 470 square miles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The budget of Reid Land would be huge. According to the \u003ca href=\"http://www.bayareaeconomy.org/files/pdf/BayAreaEconomicProfile2018Web.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bay Area Council Economic Institute\u003c/a>, if the Bay Area were a country, it’d be the 19th largest economy in the world — smaller than the Netherlands, larger than Switzerland. Money collected from regional taxes would be spent regionally.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You would be thinking about where are the best places to grow in such a way we’re really getting development around our transportation infrastructure so that people aren’t going to drive as much,” Terplan says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11691530\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-11691530\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/92733663_d2efaa401c_b-1020x651.jpg\" alt=\"Sunrise at an Oakland BART station\" width=\"640\" height=\"408\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/92733663_d2efaa401c_b-1020x651.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/92733663_d2efaa401c_b-160x102.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/92733663_d2efaa401c_b-800x511.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/92733663_d2efaa401c_b-960x613.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/92733663_d2efaa401c_b-240x153.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/92733663_d2efaa401c_b-375x240.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/92733663_d2efaa401c_b-520x332.jpg 520w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/92733663_d2efaa401c_b.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sunrise at an Oakland BART station \u003ccite>(Thomas Hawk/Flickr)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>In this fictional scenario, the city might take underutilized land and build tall mixed-housing developments. Each building would have affordable housing, and there would be businesses and green space. Bike lanes would cross these super-dense neighborhoods and a train stop would be conveniently located at each neighborhood center. These trains could whisk you across the whole region, so traffic would be reduced and people could move about Reid Land easier and cheaper.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Just think about all the things that New York City accomplished that didn’t happen here — 24-hour rail service connecting across these places,” Terplan says.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Drawbacks to One City\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>There are drawbacks to Reid Land.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For example, “If all transit was merged together, you might not have as much bus service in San Francisco as you do today because you would start spreading those resources across a bigger geography. And so for people that rely on transit in San Francisco, they would see that as a loss,” Terplan says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another consequence of amalgamating all these cities is that it would change voting demographics. People might not have their local interests represented. For example, urban constituents might be outvoted by suburban constituents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I would point to Toronto as a city that kind of did this to a certain extent. They expanded outward and had a much larger city. And at times you would have a mayor who represented a much different perspective from the traditional urban core,” Terplan says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Metropolitan Toronto amalgamated its six boroughs in 1998, it was very controversial. Twenty years later, people still debate if it was a good decision.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s also not clear if creating a single city would solve our housing problems. City council members might still find ways to block projects that would threaten the character of their neighborhoods, and vocal residents could continue to find ways to stop projects they found objectionable.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In fact, this whole thing is pretty unrealistic — 101 cities are unlikely to give up control to a single governing body.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003caside class=\"alignleft utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__bayCuriousPodcastShortcode__bayCurious\">\u003cimg src=https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/bayCuriousLogo.png alt=\"Bay Curious Podcast\" loading=\"lazy\" />\n \u003ca href=\"/news/series/baycurious\">Bay Curious\u003c/a> is a podcast that answers your questions about the Bay Area.\n Subscribe on \u003ca href=\"https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/bay-curious/id1172473406\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Apple Podcasts\u003c/a>,\n \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/podcasts/500557090/bay-curious\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">NPR One\u003c/a> or your favorite podcast platform.\u003c/aside>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Alternatives\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>We don’t need to have a single megacity to solve regional problems.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We have regional institutions that are thinking about big-picture issues facing the Bay Area.

The stories were the students' master's theses, culminating their studies at the school. They chose to report on what they consider one of America's most pressing problems, inequality, and after some research decided to focus on Fresno, the poorest major city in California. The students spent the entire 2017-2018 academic year exploring how racial and income inequality affects Fresno and how some residents are working to improve life in their community.

The stories were the students' master's theses, culminating their studies at the school. They chose to report on what they consider one of America's most pressing problems, inequality, and after some research decided to focus on Fresno, the poorest major city in California. The students spent the entire 2017-2018 academic year exploring how racial and income inequality affects Fresno and how some residents are working to improve life in their community. The resulting collection of photographs, videos, audio stories, animations, data visualizations and writing shows the face of a city struggling to overcome the legacy of its past and build a promising future for all its residents.
