As I'm sure you and readers of this blog well understand, it's not just about density around the suburban retail centers. I think downtown Silver Spring is actually quite dense -- perhaps even more so than say, Mount Pleasant -- with lots of high-rise apartment buildings within a 1/2 mile of the shopping center. But a 1/2 mile away in the suburbs isn't the same as 1/2 mile away in a city neighborhood, because in Silver Spring with roads like East-West Highway and Colesville Road, the walk is unpleasant and possibly unsafe (although there are sidewalks). I'm not sure how they could improve the situation there.
