> Zoning laws are why every city doesn't look like Hong Kong

The reason every city doesn't look like Hong Kong is that Hong Kong has a population of 7.5 million and a US city is considered "large" if it has 50,000 people.

Zoning laws are why every city doesn't look like Lubbock or Boise, which is hardly a problem.
