They still had the dimensionally-linked boxes Jack. It was a small thing, and easy to implement without tearing down the rest of the town.

They also had that speed-transport hole thing that made it easier to get from one side of the town to another.

However, over time, any new buildings would be built or upgraded using Future Tech. So eventually Snowdin would catch up to the rest of the world.

People like Undyne were greatly vexed by the cold in Snowdin. And the spider nation was divided because of Snowdin's deadly cold. There are plenty of reasons why adapting future tech would increase the monster's quality of life.

The only reason Future Tech hasn't taken over yet is that monsters like Alphys are still studying Gaster's inventions and learning from them. A process that takes time.

And not too much time has passed yet.
