Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The growth of suburbs was not spurred by the construction of mass public transportation. In fact, the development of suburbs was fueled by the increasing popularity of cars and highway construction, which made it easier for people to commute into cities from suburban areas. The availability of federally insured loans and veterans benefits also made it easier for people to buy homes and start families in the suburbs.
