= Introduction =

The term exurb, exurbia or exurbian is a US reference to the residential areas well beyond the suburbs. This term is comparable to the UK term, stockbroker belt.

= Residential focus =

The residents of these neighbourhoods are often wealthy commuters or exurbanites. These neighbourhoods may also be referred to as commuter towns or bedroom communities.

Exurbs and suburbs are similar in nature. They both emphasise residential properties (and associated services) rather than commercial or industrial facilities. However, there are slight differences between exurbs and suburbs. Suburbs tend to be developed in an area that is near a primary employment draw (such as a major city), while exurbs are more rural and may be separated from the suburbs by green space.

= Resurgence of the exurb =

The first use of the term exurb goes back to the 1950s. As a concept, exurbanite was popularised by Auguste C. Spectorsky in his 1955 book,The Exurbanites. The popularity of the exurbs increased dramatically after 2000, and then dipped until about 2010.

In 2019, more millennials were moving to the exurbs, reversing a downward trend that had happened in the previous decade.

The popularity of exurbs may be linked to several causes. One reason was the need for homes that were affordable, as the cost of city living was beyond reach for some. Another reason was the upheaval in the manufacturing sector, which resulted in the closure of many large sources of employment. While residents remained in their communities, they were forced to look for jobs in other towns or cities.
