If you want Abundance — lots of people living close together having to share stuff like subway cars, parks, and neighborhoods - then you first need foundational safety.
That is you need citizens who can fully trust their neighbors, and that means you need zero tolerance for antisocial behavior, including having someone walking around with a rap sheet that should have long ago eliminated them from free access to public spaces.

Also, Japan, but again, America doesn’t seem to want (or enact) their level of personal responsibility, immigration restrictions, and self control
