And most people don't use front or side yards for much anyways, just decoration. I'd much rather have backyard than those, especially if it means I get the amenities that come with density, such as transit and walkability.
Plus, rowhouses just look so aesthetically pleasing. I don't understand how anyone hates rowhouses.
A college of mine owns a rowhouse around here, fully paid for and all. It's worth like a quarter million .. in CHF on the market. Housing prices are just insane. Compared to me he is super rich, even though he earns less than me.
Though, we're quite far off the topic of cars now. But you are OP and Mod, so what do I know.
