How The US Government Sold Us On The Suburbs

How The US Government Sold Us On The Suburbs I have always been interested in the suburbs – where they came from – how they grew so fast after World War II. This documentary clip was made by the government to help GIs and their families feel confident that housing would be made available outside the "squalor" of the cities.
