Which city do you think is most efficient.

I'm wondering if would make people happier.
I'm wondering if it would reduce class stratification.

I'm wondering if such a city is easier to evacuate during emergencies.
I'm wondering if such a city would spread disease less quickly.
I'm wondering if there is any city like this
I'm wondering if such a city has any of the other characteristics I just talked about.
