American Taylor Swift fans are flummoxed by the MCG's lack of parking. But Australia still has way too much of it (www.crikey.com.au)

Shame those areas are super expensive.

Yeah unfortunately that will tend to happen when it's only done haphazardly. Surprise surprise, people like living in well-defined urban spaces! And will pay to do it!

Plus, I'm guessing that there may have been better public transport and cycling infrastructure, but a lot of the time it's probably still low-density single-family homes, rather than increasing to medium density row houses and apartments? That's obviously also going to be a big driver of cost.
