On balance, I think Strong Towns has done a lot of good, but in terms of organizing on the ground, I think the two large YIMBY organizations are better at equipping people to make change in their communities:

* https://yimbyaction.org/

* https://welcomingneighbors.us/

I happily read and share a lot of Strong Towns content - they do put out a lot of good stuff despite the occasional dud. But in terms of learning how to show up and get things done, I think that's not their strongest spot.



Doing good stuff and improving cities is not a contest. No organisation can do it all, but if we work together we can do a lot!


Yeah, exactly, it's not a zero sum game.
