i don't think there will be a need or desire to force people to live in cities. Most people want to live in cities for their own personal reasons.
I suppose this depends on how you define force?

Most people need to work for income. Most people find employment in the city.

Cars are popular because it gives people the option to live outside of the city.

I choose and prefer to live in the city, however I do not want to be forced to do so.

Cities give governments more social control over populations, in the form of increased regulation and taxes.

Given the increasing big brother nanny state control grid that we are under, how much longer will we have a choice?
