Wiki says differently (that it should be used only for place=city!!!) (http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:place%3Dsuburb) "...Areas of a city (place=city) are usually well-known or easily observable when passing through. It is often not clear though the precise administrative status or the exact size. Therefore, using place=town or place=village may either be inappropriate or plain inaccurate. Map making software should render any corresponding name tag value in a font with less emphasis than that used with place=city or, the case of large-scale regional maps, suppress rendering entirely..." Maybe, it's time for tag microsuburb? which can be used with place=town and place=village?
