they could afford desirable neighborhoods and now they can't by increasing numbers
Note: at some point, the “desirable” areas were the rural areas that people who wanted cheaper housing moved to.

You are now demanding the younger generations move to the suburbs of the suburbs, which, by the way, are being built up by builders who are building those massive cookie cutter neighborhoods.
There are no starter homes in those areas.
I was driving through small town LA and they were marketing those “starter homes” at $280k.
And that was a region that had minimal job prospects.

Rural areas were fine 30+ years ago when one salary could cover a family of 6. If the breadwinner had a longer commute, that was okay because there was a higher chance there was a SAHM there to take care of the kids.
Now, both parents have to work to afford a home. So both parents have to work within earshot of school because kids get sick, or it's about to rain hard so school got cancelled...
The jobs are in the suburbs and cities, and the housing isn't keeping up.
