This sounds great, but what are the "costs" on the other side? How does one balance out the economics of this sort of housing situation versus amenities supplied by a community in terms of culture, health, health care, interaction, etc.?

Does it have anything to do with the lifecycle of cities and their governments? If so, how much?
