Or simply as you age, move out of places designed for cars and to places designed for walkability. It's an easy solution if you have a skill set that's in demand and command a high wage.

Shitty suburbs will slowly become abandoned as high skilled workers are leeched away by decent living conditions (i.e. not sitting in a car for 90 minutes a day, 5 days a week)

As a counterpoint, at least for the WFH crowd, it's far easier to afford a space that accommodates 1-2 comfortable home offices in the suburbs than it is in a walkable urban environment.

Not to mention the other conveniences rarely afforded to urban apartment dwellers...

Point being - I'm not sure I see the suburbs disappearing just because car-centric development is suboptimal.
