I'm not sure about that. There's an immense amount of cheap housing throughout the city. The reason that people don't want to live there is because it's also riddled with crime, gangs, and other such things. In the city you end up with cheap high crime housing, or expensive low crime housing. You're just describing the relatively new third option - moderate priced low crime housing an hour outside the city.
