CityNerd — Downtown Interchanges Are Awful & These Are the Worst

Freeways are an unfortunate fact of life in every American city, but interchanges in your city's downtown, especially "system" interchanges where two freeways meet, are the worst.

CityNerd — Cities Are Lovely & X Is a Dumpster Fire

Can we have the old Twitter back? Please?

I took the newly electrified Caltrain up and down the San Francisco peninsula, investigating our nation’s least affordable region for housing. I have thoughts

CityNerd — I Visited the Epicenter of the U.S. Housing Crisis

Caltrain is now electrified, with an improved timetable — so I rode it up and down the San Francisco peninsula to check in on Silicon Valley, America's most expensive region for housing. And man do I have thoughts.

Suburbs that are more walkable, more bikeable, and more transit-rich than their corresponding central cities: they shouldn’t exist…but they do. New video!

CityNerd — 10 Suburbs That Are More City-Like Than Cities

Suburbs that are more walkable, more bikeable, and more transit-rich than their corresponding central cities just...shouldn't exist. But they do!

Kept Tampa and St. Pete close to me in the video I’m working on this week
Brilliant people who comment on my videos have assured me that talking about Project 2025 is “fear mongering,” and what I should REALLY be looking at is Trump’s actual plan, Agenda 47. Well, I’m several IQ points stupider after having read it, but at least you get a video https://nebula.tv/videos/citynerd-and-you-thought-project-2025-was-bad
CityNerd — And You Thought Project 2025 Was Bad

Against my better judgement, I accepted the idea that Project 2025 isn't Trump's "real" plan, and instead looked into Agenda 47. What I found was disturbing on more levels than I can count.

It’s a couple weeks after the fact, and I STILL can’t stop thinking about Detroit. On Nebula today

CityNerd — I Visited the Capital of Motordom and I Have Thoughts

If the only things you know about Detroit are what you've seen in the national news in the last few decades...you're in for a shock.

OK, I finally tackled my most requested video topic: can you be a city person and still love the great outdoors? More importantly, can you do it all car-free? Out on Nebula now.

CityNerd — Urbanism & Wilderness: Can You Have Both?

Can you live in a city and still have great access to nature? Better yet, can you do it car-free? Today we're exploring the cities where this is possible, and contemplating the interplay between urbanism and wilderness.

Reminder, this is an off week for me — no new video! (Next video should be up on Nebula tomorrow.) Instead, go watch my Durham NC episode because it’s criminally under-appreciated (both the video AND Durham).
