Urban infrastructure (roads, electrical lines, gas lines, water lines, buildings) across all cities globally scales with city size at approximately 0.85 power, creating a 15% savings in infrastructure per capita for each doubling of city size, showing extraordinary universality independent of geography, history, or culture.

Cities are the primary drivers of human innovation, wealth creation, ideas, and culture because they bring people together to interact, and this interaction is the only point of cities; the infrastructure serves merely as a physical stage for this social dynamic.
