Suburban voters are residents of suburbs—the residential areas surrounding cities—considered as a political demographic.
Political analysts treat them as a distinct voting bloc, often characterized as moderate, concerned with schools, property values, and quality of life.
In American elections, suburban voters frequently determine outcomes in swing states: Democrats made gains among suburban voters in 2018.
The term often implicitly means white, college-educated homeowners, though suburbs have grown increasingly diverse.
