Large scale housing developments designed for the highly mobile American workforce, which moves around laterally geographically and downward economically, being replenished by computers, robots, AI, nobody, and greedy corporate boards and stakeholders at the top. When they first feel the squeeze, employees try to move laterally, finding jobs and corresponding housing in nearby subdivisions. As they age out of the highest paid jobs, they move into more and more remote and chintzier subdivisions. Eventually, should they lose their jobs and become unemployable, they may wind up squatting in an abandoned house in a subdivision, or living in a shantytown laid out to look, inevitably, like a subdivision.
