An atlas of suburbanisms

Nate Berg:

To develop a better understanding of the ways that elements of urbanity and suburbanity go beyond their traditional boundaries, Moos and his team have launched the Atlas of Suburbanisms, a resource-rich website focusing on 19 cities and suburban regions across Canada. By mapping characteristics commonly associated with suburbs, the atlas provides a more nuanced look at how elements of suburbanism are actually dispersed in Canada’s metropolitan regions.

Like cities, not all suburbs are created equally. Or, for that matter, have evolved equally.
