There are many perks to living outside of the city. You can have twice the house for 1/3 the cost. It's much quieter. There are hobbies and activities that are only available outside of the city. Of course, if you are single, it's a terrible idea, but for married people or those in committed relationships, there are a lot of pluses to consider. As an example, a friend lives in a 5 bed, 4 bath house and hour and a half out of the city. He has a woodshop, a workshop, fire pit, fireplace, man cave, 4 car garage, loves dirt biking, off-roading, cycling, fishing, flying his racing drone,and can play his drums as loud as he wants. He is also only an hour and a half from the city if he wants to go in for the day or weekend. He would be in a 2 bed, 1.5 bath condo if he lived in the city and wouldn't be able to do any of his hobbies; maybe the cycling.
