Why does it have to be 1 or the other in a city? You can absolutely have both in mixed development, add in shops for basic needs as well. Is it going to be as big a a suburban place? No, but you can have a small garden and a garage.

It's really weird and unnerving seeing American cities and suburbs. They are so badly planned/zoned for actual living, when compared to European countries

Most US folks may not believe it, but South American cities are also much nicer to live in than US cities.

I don't know, I'm not a housing developer. If I could those things and be able to walk to places that'd be dope, but if I have to choose I'm going with the option that gives me the things I want over walkability.
