Skyscraper district native
A city boy is a man or boy raised in an urban environment, often implying unfamiliarity with rural life, manual labor, or outdoor skills.
The term can be affectionate, teasing, or dismissive depending on context: You're not fooling anyone with those brand-new boots, city boy.
Country boy is the obvious counterpart.
