In the absence of a flair system on lemmy yet, let’s try to make it easier to scan through posts by type in here by using tags:
Yes, suburbs abandoned for cities that are entirely built around car-centric infrastructure.
The walkability of the US is abysmal everywhere except for maybe a handful of major metropolitan areas, and even then those are lacking.
Also, assuming that people can even afford to live within the city if they can't even afford to live in the suburbs of that city. More likely people will be pushed out to rural towns with lower CoL and become even more isolated and thus car dependent
