About

Overview

This completely updated reference focuses on the individual and the suburban communities within each of the 50 largest U.S. metropolitan areas. You'll find profiles of over 1,800 Suburban Communities with a 10,000 + population. While there are a variety of sources that present statistics for metropolitan areas or for major cities, few have attempted to give comparative data on individual suburbs.

The Comparative Guide to American Suburbs is arranged alphabetically by metropolitan area. Each metropolitan area section begins with metro area statistics, a listing of the included counties and a listing of the Suburban Communities by county. Following the introduction for each metropolitan area, Suburban Community profiles are arranged alphabetically by community name.
