the backyards on our block are fucking tiny.
ours is 27' x 13' and 100% patioed with brick pavers.
we definitely still have fun back there, but there's no grass.
the front lawns on my street are definitely used. they are where the kids play, the parents drink, and everyone hangs out and has a good time.
it's way more fun than everyone sequestering themselves in their own private little backyards.
if i just wanted a private backyard, i'd move out to the burbs.
fuck that. give me an active city residential sidestreet anyday over "backyards".
