One variable is that it really depends on the definition of "suburb" each person is using.
Take the greater Silicon Valley area. There's only three small urban cores, San Francisco, Oakland and San Jose. Even within those, a lot of the area is suburbs and even semi-rural and agricultural. So by that viewpoint, most of Silicon Valley is suburbs.
