Except most grass, especially border areas like front lawns and street medians as well as corporate-owned lawns like around a drive-thru or suburban offices, gets zero use. It’s one thing to have a dedicated play area in a yard or park that’s cut grass; it’s another thing to have the entire property as cut grass.
Everyone in my neighborhood has large cut grass lawns. There’s mostly retired folks here are very few children. I spend a lot of time outside yet can literally count on one hand the number of times I have seen people out in those yards for a purpose other than cutting the grass. If you’re not going to use it at least let the dandelions grow so the bees have something to eat!
And the fucking noise from lawnmowers and whipper snippers all day long.
I’d like to relax and read a book outside, on my messy lawn but all my neighbours do is come outside, make noise for a couple of hours and once they have a ‘perfect’ lawn they fucking go back inside.
