The loss of 3rd places as you mentioned is huge. When I was a kid we at least had malls, where you could still hang out and roam about without having to actually buy anything. Nowadays, there's next to nowhere to just exists without spending money (unless you live outside of cities/suburbs).

I lived outside of cities/suburbs, and there was nowhere to hang out either.
