Would you tell me if this sentence is okay?

I think overdevelopment is a/the road to ruin our city. Continuing to build large, poor quality developments with little regard to public space have taken their toll on the resident's quality of life.
I think the overdevelopment of our city is a road to ruin. Continuing to build large, poor quality developments with little regard to public space have taken their toll on the resident's quality of life and health.
Thank you
The fourth way is the way I would choose to write the sentence, that doesn't mean it is the only way or the only correct way. [ also I am a little undecided about 'is a road to ruin our city' VERSUS 'is a road to ruining our city'. ]
Ruin is both a verb and a noun. Which s going to start a grammar debate. What is it? in the sentences where I did not use ruining, which I do automatically because of early years school training
You could also use the word ruination as well as ruining.
Quality of life includes HEALTH
