Cars are responsible for suburban life. Before cars people lived in and around the city center. They could walk to downtown, shop, and go to government offices because they were living near them. With the invention of the car people didn't have to stay so near to downtown so they began to build further out. After the men came home from WW2 they wanted new homes for their young families away from the older rundown parts of town, so construction companies began to build vast neighborhoods for the families and because they didn't want to drive all the way to shop stores were built to sell to the new families. Schools were built and eventually malls were created with movie theaters, restaurants, and more stores. Today, some cities have gone back into the older sections, restored older homes and apartments, added outdoor cafes, and having events in downtown so the lost downtowns are becoming places to go and be seen.

What led to the creation of suburbs in the early 1900s?
In the early 1900s it was the invention of electric powered trolleys. Many cities (e.g. Los Angeles, Chicago) built extensive electric trolley systems connecting the factories, schools, residential areas, etc. and extending into nearby small towns. This permitted the first major expansion into the "suburbs" as people living in the city centers moved to existing small towns that the trolley lines serviced as they presented more desirable places to live. The second major expansion into the suburbs happened as new suburban construction began around these trolley lines.It was really not until after WW2 however that the biggest wave of expansion into the suburbs began as the production and sale of new cars was again permitted and the car and oil companies buying up trolley lines across the country so they could scrap them to force people to buy cars if they wanted to get around at all. Now the construction of suburbs was no longer limited to the areas around trolley line systems.Unfortunately today we need to rebuild electric trolley systems and add new high speed mass transit systems to help minimize the massive traffic jams and high accident rates created by so many people driving their own personal cars to work and school!
