Because it seems misleading, if not actually incorrect. There\\\'s some good points with regards to the roads and the highways and (with qualifications) the GhibliHills, but the reason \\\"cities are overrepresented in Urban Fantasy\\\" is because... well, just look at the \\\'\\\'name\\\'\\\', for heaven\\\'s sake. \\\"Urban\\\" suggests a large concentration of people in one place -- a city, or a fairly large town, in other words.
