“Suburbanites view themselves as interested in home, family life, and children. Suburbs are seen in the suburban ideology as ‘the best of both worlds.’ This is particularly true when the focus is on raising children. Children are believed to receive a good education in an environment where they have both freedom and security.” (98)
