For me Urban means a variety of people living in close proximity. Different cultures, different colors, different expressions and attitudes - but somehow, in all this diversity, people belonging to one Urban place.
London is the ultimate Urban. It embraces the whole range of different people from all over the world. It is like the whole world in a capsule. And in its variety it is beautiful.
After living in London for 24 years, I no longer feel that I belong to any specific nationality. I am a Londoner, a universal being.
So Urban also means transcending the individual identity and forming a more global attitude.
