Work in transportation/roads and can confirm suburban cities need to spend so much on maintaining roads there isn't enough for much else. Especially cuz suburbs tend to be conservative and consistently refuse to pay more in local taxes, so the only things we can afford are cops and road repair
Imagine the city at some point just being like "I can't do this shit anymore" and just cutting those neighborhoods off. Or better, only paying in what it gives in taxes no more
