> So take an example: let's say you want to go grocery shopping from your home in a walk-able urban center, it could be a 10 minute walk to get that done.

But it's not like that is the distinguishing factor between a suburb and a city center.

From my suburb house I can walk to one supermarket in 5 minutes and to another one in maybe 6-7 minutes. Yet it's definitely a suburb.

Obviously some people in my vicinity live right next to the store but the average distance is substantially larger for the majority of people in the area.
