there are a lot of places in America that lack central planning. Houston for instance is the largest area on earth without formal central planning, and that's why it's horrifying sprawl with highway access roads right in front of people's houses, or elementary schools built next to sulfur refineries
Houston has no formal zoning or planning. The closest thing is a list development ordinances that says how roads are supposed to be built, but nothing about where roads need to go.

The only city I know of that truly doesn't have planning is Mexico city
