    Its more, I’m uncertain how much housing is already at the location. I feel an important component to a walkable city is housing(apartments, condos, etc).

      Oh, that’s fair. Typical US cities have two huge problems. The “missing middle”, which are those medium density places to live like you mentioned. Also, they’ve catered the downtowns to businesses instead of to people. As it turns out, the people are the important part of the city. Remote work really exposed that flaw in places like San Francisco.
