I have to respectfully disagree as someone who has lived in Houston for more than a few years. The density in Houston is bimodal because the traffic makes commuting so painful.

There are huge numbers of zero lot line 2-4 story townhouses being built within say 5 miles of downtown. 4-6 houses on 1/4 acre so not a lot of room to waste.

And then once you get past say 5-10 miles from downtown the sprawl is undeniable.

But to paint Houston as all sprawl just isn't honest.
