Principles of Intelligent Urbanism

Principles of intelligent urbanism are rules and guidelines to help cities become smarter and better equipped to meet the needs of their citizens. These principles include things like designing cities around active transportation (like walking and biking), integrating parks and public spaces into the city, creating dense housing neighborhoods to encourage more activities, preserving historic and cultural landmarks, increasing affordable housing, reducing pollution, and making sure everyone has access to essentials like healthcare, education, and supermarkets. By following these principles, cities can become more livable and enjoyable for their citizens.
