CityNerd | The Best Suburbs In North America: 10 Places With Great Urbanism Outside the Core City @CityNerd | Uploaded December 2022 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Today's video features -- suburbs! A typical "best suburbs in America" list would focus on things like "good" schools, low crime rates, tolerable traffic...you know, things the type of people who like suburban life tend to care about.
This channel always has a different take, though. Instead, I wanted to know -- what are the most URBAN suburbs? It really isn't an oxymoron. So I looked at suburbs with density, good urban fabric, good Walk and Bike Score ratings (citations below), and great transit.
The list, and the honorable mentions, end up being a lot of fun. Hope you enjoy!
