Sorry folks, but by your method of thinking. New Jersey needs to just give up its statehood and surrender it's territory to NYC and Philly. If you reside in a different state than the city you work in, you definately don't live in that city's suburbs. Kenosha Wisconsin isn't a suburb of Evanston, nor of Chicago, the suburb is in regards to it's PROXIMITY to the city, NOT in regards to who resides there. Look it up in the dictionary.
suburb \Sub"urb\, n. [L. suburbium; sub under, below, near + urbs a city. See Urban.] 1. An outlying PART of a city or town; a smaller place IMMEDIATELY ADJACENT to a city; in the plural, the region which is ON the confines of any city or large town; as, a house stands in the suburbs.
Hmmm...funny it just doesn't seem to mention anything regarding where the populus works in regards to where it lives in the definition.
By your own backwards logic jqr, Kenosha is a suburb of Evanston, IL and my Father who lived in Springfield, Il, but had to commute to Chicago twice a month on business, lived in a suburb of Chicago, though it is located in excess of 200 miles away. I won't even comment on how rediculous a notion that is.
