Partisans in WW2 Yugoslavia were successful in mountainous parts of country, where you can hide after guerilla actions. Flatlands and big cities were liberated only when Red Army came along on its way to Berlin.
We’re not talking about fighting only. There has to be a local support for guerilla to eat and sleep. That might work in primarily agricultural countriside but not in cities built around industry.

Insurgents need a place to hide, whether that is the country side or among the population doesn't matter. Another, if somewhat less successful, urban insurgent group is the IRA. The Troubles were almost exclusively urban fighting.
