ASP.NET MVC View Model

I recently read an article from Stephen Walther on View Models and gave it a spin. In this example,i created two typed class namely People and address..You may create properties or public fields in there. After that,create a controller with the view model which has List properties. Then in your view,you simply inherit the PersonViewModel.

Below is the Person Controller with the PersonViewModel.
public class PersonController : Controller  
    {     
      public ActionResult Index()  
      {  
        // Create list of People  
        var people = new List<People>();  
        people.Add(new People(30, "Nelson G."));  
        people.Add(new People(28, "James Ingram"));  
        // Create list of Address  
        var address = new List<Address>();  
        address.Add(new Address(9000, "Cebu"));  
        address.Add(new Address(6521, "Baybay"));  
        // Return view  
        return View(new PersonViewModel(people, address));  
      }  
      public ActionResult Details()  
      {  
        // Create list of People  
        var people = new List<People>();  
        people.Add(new People(30, "Nelson G."));  
        people.Add(new People(28, "James Ingram"));  
        // Create list of Address  
        var address = new List<Address>();  
        address.Add(new Address(9000, "Cebu"));  
        address.Add(new Address(6521, "Baybay"));  
        // Return view  
        return View(new PersonViewModel(people, address));  
      }  
    }  
  // View Model Classes  
    public class PersonViewModel  
    {  
      public PersonViewModel(List<People> people, List<Address> address)  
      {  
        this.People = people;  
        this.Address = address;  
      }  
      public List<People> People { get; private set; }  
      public List<Address> Address { get; private set; }  
    } 
Here is the view that will utilize the PersonViewModel.
 <%@ Page Title="" Language="C#" MasterPageFile="~/Views/Shared/Site.Master"   
 Inherits="System.Web.Mvc.ViewPage<ViewModelsDemo.Controllers.PersonViewModel>" %>  
 <asp:Content ID="Content1" ContentPlaceHolderID="TitleContent" runat="server">  
   Details  
 </asp:Content>  
 <asp:Content ID="Content2" ContentPlaceHolderID="MainContent" runat="server">  
   <h2>Details</h2>  
     <ul>  
       <%int i = 0; %>  
       <%foreach (var item in Model.People) %>  
       <%{ %>  
         <li> <%=item.Name %> &nbsp; <%= Model.Address[i].completeAdd %> </li>     
          <%i++; %>       
       <%} %>  
       </ul>  
 </asp:Content>
