Housing price goes down, but there's no maintenance. No shops open nearby, no hospitals, no firemen, no police, no gas stations.

People will flock to cities that still have services. Then the cities will have the same population density as before.

But I guess my line of thinking is the need for these things will be lesser. The hypothesis is society will decrease proportionally There will still be firemen, there will just be less firemen than if measured against "now."
