The main type of housing found in a defined suburb is _______________.
The defining feature of suburbs, and the appeal for many people who move to them, is that they are dominated by single-family houses. This means suburbs, outer districts of urban areas, have lower population density and higher overall per capita wealth. These factors also lead to better government services and higher quality of local education. Detached single-family housing is a massive draw for population groups with the income to sustain them.
