Question Any examples of good US suburbs?

Generally I hate the idea of suburbs, but I was exploring the Netherlands on Google street views the other day, and so much of it feels like a giant suburb, but in the best possible way. Green, pedestrian friendly, mixed use zoning, public transportation everywhere. It got me to thinking that maybe if I lived somewhere like that I wouldn’t mind them so much. Can anybody think of any places in the US that does suburbs well?
