So here's data for the nine densest Census tracts in Koreatown (they are mostly contiguous). I don't feel like listing them out individually so I'll just give the basic, aggregate stats. I might spell it out in more detail when I have more time.
Probably some very small cities in the sunbelt would fit the criteria.
What makes Koreatown great in comparison to other urban walkable neighborhoods is the variety of day to day amenities available in the neighborhood ranging in the types of services, the ethnic origins of those services, and the various tiers of affordability for different types of services within the neighborhood. It's pretty uncommon and packed tightly.
Coming from dc/chicago, la packs more amentiies into its commercial areas.. its prerty apparent, actually.
Only nyc does it better . Not sure about sf.
Actually, it's not that apparent to a lot of people because they're not sure what to expect--I think that's why this argument always goes on for so long.
Chicago at its peaks probably packs more than LA at its peak does though. Philadelphia and SF, and maybe to a somewhat lesser extent, Boston, are pretty close and have a pretty good argument for being more densely packed with things in their most urban/walkable neighborhoods and they have more parts that seem densely packed. LA has some pretty good peaks, but there aren't as many of them of those extremely densely packed areas as the others mentioned, but LA has a lot more moderately packed areas. DC doesn't have as great of peaks as the others in my estimation.
I wouldn't call those portions of country. Around half of the streetviews have semi-attached housing or small apartment buildings within view. These are not typically rural housing typologies. Anacostia also has fairly urban areas as well, like this. Like a lot of U.S. cities, it just shifted away from urban housing typologies over the course of the 20th century. NYC has neighborhoods which look suburban in every single borough besides Manhattan. Though even the far north of Manhattan has a few houses left.
