Mildred's vision of a utopian is the version of the world she currently lives in. She is perfectly content to live without books, only visiting friends to do the same thing she does at home - watch TV. And when confronted by change, she becomes scared. For example, when Montag shows Mildred all of the books he's stolen, she becomes almost terrified of them. "'Mildred backed away as if she were suddenly confronted by a pack of mice that ad come up out of the floor. He could hear her breathing rapidly and her face was paled out and her eyes were fastened wide. She said his name over, twice, three time. Then, moaning, she ran forward, seized a book, and ran toward the kitchen incinerator." What we can see from this is that Mildred is perfectly content living the life that she is, and doesn't want it to change at all costs.
In my personal opinion, a utopian society wouldn't necessarily be one where everyone was happy. It would be just and fair, but also show mercy to those who deserve it. also concert tickets and plane tickets would be like 10 dollars.
