Preferred term

suburban land use  

Definition

  • Because suburban is a relative—and highly subjective—term, suburban land use is best explained with respect to broader patterns of urban and regional development. The word itself carries both positive and negative connotations, depending on the specific context and/or frame of reference. [Source: Encyclopedia of Geography; Suburban Land Use]
