al oof from brooklyn

hey, i just tuned in and you said that most people live in the suburbs. but what are you counting as a suburb?

i always wonder because suburbs of nyc are quite urban, and some cities are full of people driving around (like LA) so i'm wondering if we mean suburb as in a specific sort of layout, or suburbs as in not the largest urban center in an area.
