Despite some of the best minds in the nation and its creativity in movies and technology, California lags behind the rest of the nation in controlling growth.
"Despite some of the best minds in the nation and its creativity in movies and technology, California is nearly as renowned for what's wrong: gridlocked freeways, marathon commutes, smog and stratospheric housing prices. While its films have happy endings and its computers get faster, the congested downside to the nation's most populous state is only expected to get worse, say growth watchers inside the state and beyond. State governments elsewhere are experimenting with aggressive top-down solutions to their growth problems. But California, which turned cruising into pop culture and boasts more cars than registered drivers, lags in its customary role as trendsetter, say urban planning analysts."
