- This scene represents suburban sprawl. Sprawl is the expansion of urban or suburban area into unused land (which is generally rural). Sprawl reduces the amount of available land for farming, and greenbelts are often put into place to avoid sprawl in certain areas. Several large towns like Los Angeles, Miami, and Austin still have urban and suburban sprawl today.
- Gentrification occurs when the wealthy renovate lower-class urban or suburban areas. This process generally raises the prices of these areas and forces the poor citizens out. Previously poor areas like Atlanta and Boston experienced gentrification which improved the cities significantly.
