Well, I should say that I think I write urban fantasy, but it's more set in the 'burbs.' I'd hate be writing Burb Fantasy, so, there you go, lol.
I've always had a bit of a problem with this, too, because I've seen books that were labeled as Urban Fantasy but were not set in big cities like New York or L.A. or London or anything - but I've also seen people assert that if it isn't set in the city, if it's not city-based, then it's "contemporary fantasy" or something like that.
I suppose it's part of why I asked, because I'm not sure if Urban Fantasy is an umbrella under which all things fit or not.
