Mortgages for single-family homes will be harder to secure, federal monies for municipal infrastructure will decrease if the expected use of those monies is in areas of single-family housing, and, if the government gets its way in eliminating gas powered vehicles in favor of electric vehicles there may be less driving so people will want to live closer to their schools, work, and retail needs. The grand design condenses the living areas, reduces the need to travel, and makes travel more expensive and "clumsy" by having to recharge more frequently. And all of this doesn't even begin to encroach on the recreational aspect of live. Just wait until the government decides boating is unnecessary.
I may be all wet, and I don't expect this to happen overnight, but I do think some of what I say is accurate.

Just remember none of this will apply to those chosen few over lords (politicians and other elites) who live in sprawling estates behind closed gates. They will have armed guards, walled off from the rest of society, and when they do travel it will be in an entourage of gas guzzling and ozone depleting SUVs that whisk them off to their private jets so to enjoy a lavish lifestyle. Do as I say not as I do.
For the rest of us peasants we will not be allowed to be so fortunate.
