> People don't live in suburbs, because for whatever reason they're not being built fast enough at a cost that is affordable.
Is it possible that it’s due to people feeling like they do not have the economic security to purchase homes and start families?
There are cheap suburbs all over the US. The question is can people afford them, including factoring in the volatility of income over the next few decades of your life.
I'm not so sure there are cheap suburbs all over. Housing occupancy has remained at the same, noise level for decades. You have to find a house for sale, in your price range, to live in a house. That's hard, which means IMO there aren't enough houses.
