Title: It seems inevitable that self driving cars are coming. When they do, they will change housing dynamics in a fundamental way.<p>Will this change make city living more or less desirable?<p>A few forces could be at work here:<p>* Parking lots in major cities are free&#x27;d up because they no longer make sense creating more housing real estate. City living is more affordable.<p>* Traffic Congestion is reduced so commutes are shorter creating more demand for suburb living.<p>* Distances feel shorter because they are no longer inconvenient so living outside the city makes more sense - more suburb demand.<p>* City living gets even more desirable because of the abundance of cheap self-driving cabs not available in more rural areas - city prices go up.<p>* More?<p>I&#x27;m sure some of these things will have a very little impact while others will have huge impact. I just wonder about the net result. Any speculation?
