    It’s a different approach for sure. Back in USSR we had dense housing, but it was surrounded by lots of parks, so there was a lot of nature to enjoy as well. And it was definitely safer than anything I’ve experienced in the west. People would let their kids out to play completely unsupervised, and you’d have seniors go to the park in the evening. The idea of being mugged wasn’t even something anyone could imagine.
