Outer area of a city (6)

I believe the answer is:

suburb

(Other definitions for suburb that I've seen before include "Residential city area" , "Area on the periphery of a city" , "Residential district on the outskirts of a city" , "Outlying city district" , "Residential district on a city's outskirts" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
