No, this is the urban planning of cities - urban areas. Suburbs and subdivisions is usually not in the sense used here - who are willing, despite some efforts are underway to make the overall planning of "new towns"
Urban planning is primarily to solve the existing problems for cities and towns. For example, a part of the city is built around a large factory, as the old Ford plant, not far from me. It is of poor quality housing or the things the old food and utilities, but not, or pharmacies. If we were to change the land use and the installation of a deposit of large trucks, which is a load of heavy traffic on roads in the vicinity. The planners of the city would be the consequences. On the other hand, if someone was a community college and transport the power and safety requirements, while a sports complex with tennis and basketball inside and needs are different again.
Urban examines the security and police and fire departments, the use of water and wastewater needs, the impact of a skyscraper in theits neighbors (the shadow of the movement). When a handful of old buildings are really bad taste in a particular area would be best to take to shoot it (Code Execution) and make it into a park or encouragement to businesses?
A few years ago came up with the idea that they needed a home in Dallas, near the center, partly because the people involved and partly because it seemed possible, the houses were built ranch in the suburbs and surrounding roads were for traffic blocked is limited. It was partly so that the children safer. But there were no supermarkets or pharmacies, service or right bus, and is considered a bad idea now. Since then, suddenly changed travel and tax credits were given to put a grocery store and pharmacy right in the middle tier, it has a building boom was 2-3 mass density luxury condominium high-rise apartments and some re - use of old warehouses and office buildings, while some 300 apartments in the "middle" in the 30 years I have lived here are now more like 3000thThe errors are still made - a "town center" in the near American Airlines Center was half-built and is not a figure of the "street" as people and businesses are expensive and of importance to the basketball / hockey crowd. Meanwhile, the number of new light rail system is quiet, the apartment near the source of each station and the Arts Center can be seen on the stage, the city attracts people from there. Understanding these options is urban planning;
