This analysis examines six major urban regions and their agricultural cohabitation: Greater New York (23.5M/17,000 km²), Greater Los Angeles (16.5M/13,000 km²), Greater Toronto (6M/7,000 km²), Fraser Valley Lowlands (2.7M/2,500 km²), and Singapore (5M/710 km²). It proposes strategies for the Fraser Lowlands to curb speculation and promote sustainable living, including implementing farm-friendly housing policies, utilizing hillside areas for development, regulating unoccupied properties, and supporting small-lot, high-density housing.
