I think it’s a generational thing for sure. I guess when I say suburbia I mean something kind of in between culdesac master-planned communities (which are easier to play in) and an actual urban environment. There are too many roads with too many cars, and it’s not the 70s anymore, so proportionately fewer houses have kids at all, and if they do they’re not likely to be your school mates. Plus, stranger danger came and changed everything. I’m not saying no teenagers run around outside anymore but among middle class teens it’s a lot less common than it was - life is more like being shuttled to an fro extracurriculars or friends’ places by your parents’ car.
