Every civilizational decline is marked by urban areas declining more and more.
The bronze age collapse, the roman empire falling, mesoamerican empire collapse, current modern day urban areas declining in favour of suburbs.

Is this a good way of measuring the health of a civilization?

Hyper developed empires often have secular wackjob cities. Pseudointellectuals point at thinks like Greeks complaining about people partying too much as the reason they fell. But this is wrong
