I thought it was a more general term, and that suburbs were distinct. But it does appear that suburbs are considered a part of urban sprawl.

Regardless, manicured lawns are an environmentally bad thing on their own.

When you mentioned urban sprawl I first thought of expansion of the urban heat-island effect.
