The better question would be what makes certain suburbs vote Democratic.

Well the obvious one is demographics the other is suburbs where a majority of the middle class work in service sector jobs.

PR didn't say it was a "perfect question," simply a "better question." Tongue

Are there any cities that are (significantly) more conservative than their suburbs?

Alternatively: are there any suburbs that are significantly more left-wing than the urban area?

Technically, yes, a lot of inner city voters aren't exactly "liberal" but poor black/Hispanic voters who vote Democratic because of welfare and social programs.

So, liberal.

A lot of them don't really care for social issues like abortion or LGBT rights.

So?
