By car the same would consist of 2 miles to get to the highway, then 9 miles on the highway, and another 2 miles to get into town. About 10 minutes each for any of these three components under normal conditions, during rush hour you can easily double that to an hour though. As for parking: We do have an underground parking garage. The waiting list for a spot in there is currently 2 years, and the cost is the same as my network pass for public transport last i checked.

We do have that "moving out in the suburbs once you have kids" movement too, though that's more based on it being impossible to find a rental apartment in the cities for a family. And, up till 15 years ago, the government was subsidizing that move to the suburbs too with various incentives. Property taxes over here are so complicated (and ridiculously low - offhand around 0.07-0.10%) that no one really considers them.
