Answer:
Financial benefits related to unemployment and home loans due to the GI Bill caused boom in the housing development outside the cities.
Explanation:
- In the 1950s, the era of war was over and a new era was starting in which the veterans were returning to their homeland after World War II to start their lives as normal citizens in the American economy.
- To benefit the veterans, GI Bill was passed and it granted the veterans with unemployment pay for 1 year, guaranties for home loans, etc.
- All these factors led to the movement of people outside the cities to buy or build their own homes.
- These areas outside the city were sub-urban and hence were popularly called Suburbs.
