Suburban 

Depending on who you're trying to get riled up, you could start a string of misinformation about Nigerian cities having suburban origins, you could do the same thing with about any information about any country.
The guy was trying to get the locals in Sri Lanka riled up, so he started a string of misinformation to get some of the changes he wanted to see. The cities in Sri Lanka weren't as large as Tokyo, New York, London, or Paris, so they must be easy, suburban targets.

Suburban 

An upper middle class person (typically a woman or gay male) whom believes they live their lives according to the rich and famous however are stuck in their grandparents ways in a low class suburb 40ks from a major city.

This person may hold events such as gender reveal parties, Tupperware parties and an occasional wine tasting to impress their other wannabe wanker friends.
Person 1 - “Hey babes did you hear Tyler and his partner had a gender reveal party?”
Person 2 - “Omg, they’re so suburban”

Suburban 

What you find outside of Chicago, New York (Long Island, parts of North Jersey for example) LA (Orange County for example) or South/Central Florida. A lot of these areas have been suburban since World War 2 or shortly after, and have a lot of what you find in a city, but with a lower concentration of it, and without as much variety. These areas haven't been rural in a long time, but they're also not urban areas. Many cities in the South would be closer to small towns in other parts of the country around World War 2 and in the years after, with some of the port cities being like mid size port cities up North, but don't have much in common with cities up North otherwise, they are different parts of the country.
A housing development built in a corn field in the middle of nowhere isn't really suburban, it's just land developers built houses on. Suburban is a mindset and a way of life, usually it goes with an area that has been suburban since many generations before your generation lived there, since you'd have to meet somebody 100 years of age or older to hear anything about what the area was like before it was the suburbs.

Suburban 

Suburban is sub-urban, almost urban but not urban.
The people describing the area like they knew it like the back of their hand hadn't been there 20 or 30 years ago, when the area they were describing was nowhere near urban or even suburban (sub-urban), it was the country, or as some would call it rural.

Suburban 

Suburban is sub-urban, not quite the country not quite the city.
The area they described as having long, winding suburban roads wasn't anything like what they were describing 20 or 30 years ago, though if they got there or visited recently, they wouldn't know that. It was a city the size of Omaha or somewhere like Omaha, surrounded by small towns and long, winding country roads that few people if anybody lived on. If you went back one hundred years the city itself had been a small town in the middle of the country. It was only when people from suburban places like Florida and California wanted the area to look like where they were from and invested in making it look that way that it started to look more like Florida or California.

A mysterious figure that is always hiding and can never be found. Think waldo.
