To clarify the issue isn't really shortage of single family homes by itself but single family homes nearby amenities (jobs etc...) Which while one can build massive freeways (Los Angeles, Atlanta etc...) eventually you'll run out of land a circular radius or end up having to build ever larger freeways to reach those suburbs.

I'm not sure if the massive freeways will really be needed. If a significant portion of people can work from home, I don't see much reason for it. I think the ideal future for many is single family homes in a resort like setting. If you are already where you want to be, there are fewer reasons to drive to other places.

That’s miserable for kids because they will always be too far from their friends at school and will be stuck at home with nothing but video games and tiktok.

When I was in school most of my friends lived in the inner suburbs and had good access to public transport so they could all meet up in the city and do things, while I was further out in an arguably richer area but without public transport so I was stuck inside missing out.
