Not necessarily. Lots more people would want to live in cities, but it's cities that are keeping people out.

You wouldn't want to build a 10 story apartment building out on the edge of town away from transit - but it's patently bizarre that cities like Seattle and San Francisco have single family zoning within walking distance of their downtown core.

Not really. It's just how the cities where built. If not they would be like NYC and the people that live in SF and Seattle don't want that
