^Those look plenty dense to me! And not all the modernist, quite a lot of interconnections in most directions in fact. Stockholm suburbs tend to be enclaves with only a a few ways out. My suburb of Kista, combined with our neighbours Husby and Akalla have 30k residents and 30k workers (very, very small overlap sadly. poor district and computer/phone companies) and how many connections are there? 4 interstate connections (the E4 and the E18), one bus-only street, one subway line going into the City. Oh, and walk/bike-paths going thru forests. This lack of connections is very, very common in Stockholm. Maybe half live in enclaves like this.
