$150,000? No thanks.

Build communal housing. Apartments owned by residents. These tiny house suburbs are a horrible waste of space and resources.

The price is ridiculous for what they get. And it’s in Texas of all places.

You could find a nice older house in the midwest with land for under 100k.

I kinda echo the comments, just build apartments with really good soundproofing. Give everyone their own little yard and have a nice community garden. Add a restaurant or real bakery to the ground floor. Have a grocery store a block away.

Who needs a yard? Build parks all over the place.

Plenty of ways to do that indoors. Also you might be one of those people who wants to live in the suburbs in spite of all the problems that causes.
