This is an increasingly dying trend. Dying silents/boomers, diversification, millennials coming of age, college educated voters moving left, an anti-Trump flight to the Democrats as the GOP becomes the "party of Trump", a lot of Trump voters losing faith in him and his party. The boundary is moving outward and will move the country very leftward. Most suburbs had big swings towards Hillary, so yeah the GOP isn't looking in good shape.

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.
