The spread of mass transit from the city to the suburbs.People rode streetcars to the city to work, shop, and be entertained, and returned to their homes in the suburbs in the evening.
the answer is increased
I think the first key to answering this question is understanding what the suburbs are. Most people consider themselves to either live in the city, or outside the city (the suburbs). The suburbs are usually less populated regions that do not contain the city life including lots of commercial buildings, big populations, and public transportation. In the city, most people could survive on public transportation. Nowadays, most cities have all sorts of transportation including buses, trains, subways, and taxi services. However, in the suburbs, there aren't as many public transportation. Hence living in the suburbs is pretty much a necessity to owning a car, unless you are comfortable walking, riding a bike, or any other means.
Cars led to the development of suburbs.

The growth of suburbs led to urban sprawl, increased car dependency, and a shift in the population away from city centers. This expansion also impacted infrastructure development, housing patterns, and environmental concerns.
The highways as they were built opened the the rural areas near cities to the development of the suburbs. The first of them was just across the city limits border and they moved out from their initial thrust.

When suburbs were built, they were cheaper than living in a city. They were community-based, and people believed that they were safer than the city for their children. The cities emptied out and left abandoned buildings in their wake. Crime and unemployment rose.
