I lived in urban apartments when I got into my hobby of building and flying RC sailplanes. There are plenty of parks I could walk to or bike to that are big enough to fly in. When I needed more space, I drove to my sanctioned flying field which is out in a truly rural area. Most suburban back yards are still far too small for RC flying so I'm not sure what the living suburbs gets you for this hobby that you can't have in a city. DC is a special case because the entire city is subject to special flight rules[1]. You're SOL if you live there.
