I often wonder the same thing. There are, in my opinion, better options closer to downtown than in the suburbs and for similar prices. I'd take an older more central house over a new one with a terrible commute every day of my life.
I know nothing of the school situations though, and if you work in the burbs then obviously that changes things too. It just surprises me to see people go nuts for new builds so far out, especially when I listen to my coworkers complain about their commutes regularly.
