Urbanicide 

When a city or metropolitan area pursues a gargantuan public infrastructure project that is considered mostly unnecessary by the citizenry while there are scant funds to pay for it. The urbanicide then occurs when an appointed (unelected) authority then decides to subject the region's citizens to user fees (read: toll taxes) to pay for the extravagance, dividing the community and greatly impoverishing it at the same time.
The harsh tolls being forced down the Louisville area's throat by the unelected Louisville and Southern Indiana Bridges Authority (LABIAS) for the Ohio River Bridges Project will surely result in a terrible urbanicide of what will be called a once-great city and region.

Uppity Urbanite 

Someone who thinks that living downtown is the only way to go and that everyone else is an uncultured rube.
“I can’t visit her, she lives in the suburbs for God’s sake! You might as well ask me to go to the deep south or the dark heart of Africa or some other place with no running water or appletinis!” Shrieked the uppity urbanite.

“Oh...my...God....is that a cow?! Hold me, I’m scared, it’s going to be just like Deliverance”
“Shut the fuck up, Catherine. If you’re going to pull this uppity urbanite shit with me we will end this road trip right now.”

feral urbanites 

1. dysfunctional city dwellers, prone to acts of violence or aggression

2. city-dwelling, undomesticated, ignorant, amoral members of the lower class; often adored with tattoos and affiliated with gangs

3. work-averse inner city thugs engaging in illicit schemes of self-enrichment (e.g. looting, robbery, carjacking, knockdown games), at the expense of innocent victims perceived as weak or defenseless (e.g. old people, lone drunks, gays, transvestites)

4. followers of corrupt, self-aggrandizing corporate extortionists and inciters of race riots, such as Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton

Sophisticated Urbanite

Someone who is urban and cityish but still sophisticated with impecable taste. And no one ever questions their fashion choices. They envy their amazing use of slang and wide range of vocabulary. They are personable and people want to talk to them. You can only be designated this term.
Britney: "Look at Grayce. Her outfit is amazing. Edgy, but stylish."

Katie:"I know, she's such a sophisticated urbanite."
