Technically each metro area is broken into 'cities' (eg Whitehorse in Melbourne) but virtually no-one ever uses these as 'city' names, they are really just local councils. There are also 'suburbs' (like Ferntree Gully in Melbourne) but these could never be considered suburbs.
You have mixed together all three in this list.
