The meme is a screenshot of a tweet that shows a before-and-after image of a city. The top image is of a sprawling suburban development with a large mall at its center, surrounded by parking lots and low-density housing. The bottom image is of a densely populated urban area with a mix of high-rise buildings, parks, and street-level businesses. The text above the images reads, "Suburbs: 1970s Suburbs: 2023".
