The distinction here is not "suburb and non-suburb", it's "car-dependent suburb and non-car-dependent suburb" the large large majority are the former.

    This was definitely something I didn't realize was a thing until I moved into a far more non-car dependent suburb. I grew up in suburban sprawl so bad it would literally take you half an hour to foot just to leave the neighborhood. It's not nearly as good as some of the places I've stayed in Europe, but it was eye opening to say the least.

    You should try an English suburb. The one I used to be in had a couple doctor's surgeries and everything. On a main road that leads into the city centre too.

    The next one had a whole shopping centre just to itself.
