Different types of suburbia:
Northeast Suburb: A standard suburb, filled with endless single family houses, affluent moderate liberals and their children. You can find a lot of these in New Jersey and Long Island.
Midwest Suburb: Where the
Republican Party and Walmart are cornerstones of the community. You WILL get funny looks if you drive through here as a black person.
Gated Community: Paranoid and rich nutcases, mostly. Also most of the town is just golf courses.
Sun Belt Suburb: Filled with retirees who contribute
absolutely nothing to the downtown economy besides their taxes.
Streetcar Suburb: Suburbs that have townhomes and the occasional apartment building. They tend to be affluent and liberal, like the Northeast Suburb but more diverse. You can actually walk to the store or
catch the bus here.
Exurbs: Generally isolated culs-de-sac off a rural road/highway. God help the kids that grow up here. The home turf of McMansions.
Bob: Growing up in suburbia as an only child was hell…
David: I grew up in
the suburbs and it was fine…
Bob: I didn’t mean “the northernmost parts of
the Bronx” I meant Pond Heights in the
middle of buttfuck Egypt.
