I'm a bit more optimistic. Only something like 2% of the U.S. is urban.

If it became problematic that people didn't own homes, but wanted to, they could easily just open land for building.

They may own all the land around cities and all the corporations move there. There by making "corporate cities", but at the end of the day, people can create their own thing like they did in the past.

That's way optimistic. There's lots of other reasons to be in cities besides jobs.

I don't know. Living in a "bedroom community" often has all the benefits of the city without the downsides. Usually cheaper, less traffic, can still pop into the city for restaurants, shopping, entertainment when it suits you.
