What makes a good city, is the people, the homes, and maybe the cars. This makes it a good city because if the people are really bad, and do horrible stuff then no one would want to live there. Also if the homes are bad then maybe people would not want to live there, also the cars because if there is lots of reaches always happening, or lots of traffic then people would not want to live there. What makes it good is the opposite of this. What would make the perfect city block, is nice people, because if people are always nice to neighbors then they would live there more. Also what makes a good city block is the way it looks. Any city could have this but I can not come up with one that has all this in it. And the perfect city block could be any block, but it has to have people who are really nice and homecoming to their neighbors.

What makes a good city well we all have our own opinions on that. I would want Clean, kind people,nice homes. Clean there are not a lot of cities that are clean but I think that's how it’s a good one on the oral hygiene. Everyone wants to go out for a walk and not she trash everywhere and shopping carts everywhere I would rather go out and see the beautiful trees and flowers. Kind people when you go shopping and the person who's helping you says “Oh my GOSH you look so good in that outfit”. That can really brighten anyone's day or just a simple smile. I think everyone wants a nice home and Cities seem to price homes really high but when you see a neighborhood full of good homes and no trash that makes the city so much better in my opinion. What makes a good city block just being surrounded by nice people and a good environment just people who you can make friends with.

I think the best city block would be one filled with very nice people. A city isn’t a city without people, and without good people the city wouldn’t be cared for. A good city would be one that it’s easy to live in. Like having a good food system, a good hospital system, and cheap. A city where one could come and go as he/she pleases. I know that would be the most perfect city block.

Other people might think that the looks of the city is what makes it good but I think that nice, thoughtful, and considerate people is what makes a good city. Kind people would help others in need instead of ignoring them like they aren't there. Thoughtful people would think of others, for example instead of hoarding food and toilet paper they would only take what they need and leave the rest for other citizens. Considerate people would help the community and try least to cause a conflict. If people in our cities acted like this there would be much less crime, and inconvenience. The looks of a city don’t really matter as long as it’s accompanied by genuinely kind people.

A perfect city block would have nice people, who are generous and go out of their way to help someone-a responsible community that cleans up after themselves. I also think a perfect city block would be in a small town like Paradise, but just a little bigger, maybe like Sacramento. It would have some big buildings, but not all, with big huge streets and sidewalks and a lot of room for hiking. It would have big,beautiful houses, and lots of flowers like Table Mountain. The perfect city block would have nice people, a good community, in a city that's not to big, with beautiful, wide-open scenery.

The perfect city is a city with everything good in it and no homeless people always clean houses that are at least 25 yards away from each other. There is no mayor, it is just a community that works together. The same goes with the city block.

A good city block would have no crime or homeless. In my opinion I would like a smaller city because then everybody would know everybody. I would like there to be street performers because I think that's just cool. I feel like it shouldn’t be all cities. I feel like there should be a balance between nature and city. That is my perfect city.

a good place to live at is were no homeless, not that much noise so you can sleep well at night, a lot of people that live next to you, so you can have a lot of friends instead of being lonely for a long time, also get a big place to stay at so they can invite more people over to their house and have more space to place stuff, and it has to be live able so the person fell comfort and protection.

A perfect city would have no crime, no homeless, friendly people and nice houses. A perfect city block would be nice looking with really nice people, and smell better than normal cities do, this would make more people want to come. With all of this not only more visitors but more people are happy with the enviornment they live in.

The things that make a good city. I think that the prime/ideal thing to have in a city is a good community and people. People need a friendly place to live in and good people to be with because you need a reason to stay. The other thing is homes and a cozy and thoughtful place for everyone. Studio apartments, houses and suburbs and just general places that people can live a nice life in. People need these or they have no reason. If a city only consisted of over the top houses or crappy junked up apartments then they wouldn't stay. People need coziness and fun with a zing of excitement to keep life together and of course jobs. People need stable jobs to have money and pay for food and housing. That is what a city needs to keep stable and steady people.

A good city should have enough room for its people, services for what they need (grocery stores, hospitals), and outdoor activities, like parks or running trails. It should also have a sense of community, where people can work together to make their city a better place. A perfect city block would have trees that change color with the seasons, crazy squirrels that are tame enough you can toss them nuts, good neighbors, and deer that knock on your windows to say good morning. This city block should have schools and parks walking distance from homes, and it should have a taco truck on the corner.

I have never lived in a city but when I visit I see lots of traffic, houses close together and people everywhere. I think these are things that make a city a city. But the things that make a good city are nice people, nice houses, and jobs. To make a great city I think you need good jobs because houses are expensive in a city. To have nice houses you have to make good money to afford to keep your house nice. You also need nice people because you don't want to live by rude people. Having nice neighbors makes a good neighborhood which makes a good city. The city can be busy and full of business but when you come home it should be peaceful. The perfect city would have nice sidewalks that were clean so I could ride my bike and take my dog for a walk. I would see nice people gardening and having little yards. Maybe a nice old lady down the street that waves. This is what I would want for a perfect city block.

What makes a good city? What makes a good city is the places, people, and pollution. If the places in the city were boring then no one would wanna live there. If the people were too nice or too rude then no one would wanna live there and lastly If the city had high pollution then people would probably not wanna live there. What would make a perfect city block? Well first off, nothings perfect. Anyways what would make a decent city block? Cheap houses, a mix of nice and rude people, and spreaded out houses. Cheap house because some people don’t have much money, but there could be expensive houses to like the really good quality ones. A mix of nice/rude people because if the block you lived on was just nice people it would get annoying, the same with just rude people. Lastly spreaded houses because you don’t wanna be super close to your neighbor and if the land was farther apart you could have more room to put stuff.

What I think would make a good city is schools, homes, transportation, stores and people. Why I think schools are very important is because people need to get a good education so they can go to college and get the job they want when they grow up. The reason I think homes are important is so that people have a shelter to live. This is one of the main necessities everyone needs. The reason I think transportation is important is because you need to be able to get around to the towns necessary places and get to work or school on time. The reason I choose stores as being important is people need to be able to shop to get food to eat and clothes to wear. The reason I think people are important in a city is if we don’t have anyone there is not a city.

What makes a good city is somewhere for all the kids to hang out.I would also really like nice neighbors and a lot of nice helping people. Another thing is that there are no homeless people. I don't like homeless people. Also people are nice and funny and they help you. That is what I really would like in all of the cities in the world.

I would say that what makes a good city block is little to no crime. If there is crime someone could rob your house or do worse, but with no crime you have nothing to worry about. Another thing that makes a good city block is good people that live in the block. If you have bad neighbors then if something happens to one of your kids while your not home nobody will help. Lastly what makes a good city block is the schools around it. If you live in a city block with bad schools your children will either have to go to them or have to wake up early to get ready to go to school.

What would be the perfect city and the perfect city block in that city? Well for me it would have to have a trampoline park, and something fun and active like a laser tag place, and the last thing that would have to be in this city would be something to do with your friends and family. It would also be nice if this city had a large city block that has some small houses and a massive park in the center with a huge hill in it and tracks to walk on and hike. That would be the perfect city for me

I think what makes a good city is the people and the environment. I think people make a city better because if you don’t have a city that has nice people there could be lots of crime in the city. By having nice people in the city it would help businesses because if there were a bunch of people stealing it people wouldn’t want to go in the store or the city because nobody would want to go into a city that has a lot of crime in it. Having nice and happy people would help the city be a better happier place to go to and live in. I think the environment in a city makes it a better city because you don’t want your city to have a bunch of trash everywhere and not look clean. The perfect city block would have a bunch of skyscrapers and a bunch of little shops. That’s what I think makes a good city and a perfect city block.

What makes a good city is that you have to have the essentials, like markets with food and dairy. You also have to have a lot of gas stations. Hotels, houses stores, jobs, and big roads. Also big Companies. That is what I would think would be a city.

A good city would have no crime, slime to no insects, good laws. That is all I can think of at the moment. This is a very challenging question that I do not really have an answer too. I do not have a good answer to that question. I do not have an answer to that question at all.

I feel like a good city would be somewhere with skyscrapers and just a huge place full of cars in streets and with a very good mayor who makes good disisions and who does good things. I think every good city has no criminals and bad things going on. I would think that perfect cities has people walking and going to building to building in peace. A perfect block would be apartments or houses with no dark ally ways or rats. I would picture on the block people walking their dogs and people jogging and exercising in groups. Anyway, I would just picture happiness in the cities and blocks with nothing wrong happening.

I think what makes a good city is nice neighbors. When it's clean there are not tons of trash, or tons of people living on the street, and tons of shopping carts in the roads. But also makes a good city is a good environment fresh air so that where your out the air isn't smelling like smoke everywhere you go. Also what makes a city good people so there isn't tons of crime and good laws.

What makes a good City, is a good community, nice architecture with many things to do. The perfect city block would need to include the best neighbors possible. very nice houses and lawns. You would need a park with a water slide and a huge grass field. The city around it wouldn't need to be the nicest in most expensive buildings but it needs to be somewhat nice. I think you don't want to say to be too busy but you also want to have lots of people living in that City but not too much. I think that's what makes the perfect City.

My perfect city block would have lots of arcades, pools, bmx tracks, water parks, dirt bike tracks, and dirt bike dealerships. With all my friends on the same block so it would be easy to hang out.
