Thanks for the explanation.
Obviously it is similar over here with people living in the burbs and
driving to the city. However the reason is mostly that it is a better place
to raise kids than the central concrete jungle. That I can understand but
why a single person or childless couple would want to live in the outskirts
and commute everyday is a little beyond me.
I suppose the reason people don't use public transport is because they don't
want to meet the public.

Hendrik,
"Bedroom Communities" are located in city suburbs where people live,
but only sleep/live. The work in the city. Unfortunately, too many
of them commute by car and have a distain for public transportation
or it is not sufficient to serve all of the suburbs (as is the case
here in Phoenix Arizona where employment centers are not centrally
located.) Perhaps the term "bedroom communities" is unique to US.
Take care,
Chuck
