What do you mean? Almost every major city has suburbs (at least in my country). I live in one of the top ten most populous cities in the US and I live in the suburbs.
Do you think the municipalities that surround major cities exist as part of the city? Is Brookfield ‘Chicago’? Is Ferndale ‘Detroit’? Is Long Island ‘New York City’? Is Somerville ‘Boston’?
Yes. Long Island is New York City. I lived there and my address said New York, New York.
I brain farted. I lived in Staten Island, but the point stands. Staten Island is a suburb of New York and is in New York. My current living situation is identical with respect to my current major city. I live in a suburb, but my address says the name of the major city.
Your point does not stand. Staten Island is not a suburb of New york. It is IN the boundary of New York City the same way Brooklyn is in the bounds of New York. That’s why your address says New York.
Do you suppose a yard is an option in those same areas?
Yes. I live in one such area, in a city of many of them.
So it’s in a major city that also has heavy traffic, but also enough space for houses with spacious yards?
That’s why it has traffic, because it was built for low density.
So the suburbs. Not a major city at all.
