Wouldn't the outer suburbs be more reactionary? If you're used to nothing but cars and two-storey infill, then urbanization is going to seem much more alien.
Outer suburbs have more newcomers, with many more used to high density developments. Vancouver and West Van are filled with entitled folks who think that they are better than everyone else (seriously they are not, not in the tiniest bit) and that the world owes them something for being "superior". These are the folks who love pushing their weight around, both literally and figuratively.
