I don't think it matters that much. Most central neighborhoods that look like stable SFH neighborhoods are pretty densely populated and have a mix of dwelling types.
What other cities are like Toronto in having lots of SFH and lots of high rises but few of the lowrise, mid-height category in between?

Any really prominent examples of a similar city, that is still seen as "urban"?
