Small communities which surround and are dependent upon a city. It is formed from Latin "sub" meaning under, and "urbs" meaning city. The residents of the suburb generally go to the city to work, so industries in the suburbs are generally confined to retail and personal services (dentists, hairdressers, chiropractors, etc.)
