Exactly this. I live in the now-inner-city (a residential area mile or so from downtown office buildings and a few blocks away from small office buildings). Back in the day our walkable neighborhood was built, it was considered the outer suburbs. It's still extremely dense. Way denser than the 60s/70s suburb I grew up in, and way denser than anything today. Density isn't just about how close the houses are but how close the nearest cafe and store is too.
