I completely agree, it's just there's nothing stopping those office jobs to be created next to train stations. Except there aren't enough conveniently located train stations... turns out there are in Paris and London though? Car dependence is a feature of sprawling cities. If you make your city dense, the jobs will be there. The fact that everyone has a car makes the jobs be all over the place because if employees can't commute further, the jobs will move to them. It's pure game theory. The big question is how to jump from a stable state of car dependence to a stable state of mass transit and I don't see a way to do that in general.
