Real solutions (in my opinion): * Public (city/state/etc) owned parking structures at the edges of the city. * Good, all weather sheltered, pedestrian access between in city parking / housing / jobs. * More residential development within cities, until the competition drives the rent down to the same as (or close to) the surrounding areas; when it increases due to network effect push again to keep it within that bound. * Improve building codes to keep the quality of life in the city the same as out of the city. * Incentivize (tax benefits for compliance, tax more for non-complianc) units having more 'family' sized dwellings (and those even better acoustic isolation). Make it possible to afford and find a place to raise a family within the city.
