While I think cities will become culturally detached from their region, I think there are factions or leagues of cities that have their own thing going.
There are elite or expensive cities like SF, Boston, NYC, DC, have migration and cultural links between them but not necessarily to them from elsewhere in the US. The big sunbelt cities like Atlanta and Houston have a similar thing. Then there are places like Austin and Nashville that draw from the same demographic and cultural forces. Or Detroit, Cleveland, Indy, etc.

has more to do with people who never lived in the city, moved to Phoenix, Dallas or Tampa, and then gloat about the fact that they left the "city" and it's Libtard agenda in the dust.

I'd say though that if you are younger than 40 and you are originally from a sunbelt city you don't have a city-vs-suburb mindset. You probably see a place like Dallas as being a bunch of different areas which are neither stereotypically urban nor suburban in the old school sense.
There's a phenomena in Texas where people who were born in the state are slightly less conservative than transplants from elsewhere. Some of the most aggressively right-wing and culturally insular and suburban-minded places like The Woodlands or Southlake are full of Californians who moved.
