suppy
n.— «While New York, Washington, Boston, San Francisco and Chicago, among others, may appeal to aging suburbanites, smaller cities and metropolitan areas are also marketing themselves as magnets for urban professionals ages 65 to 74, or “suppies,” many of whom are still working and who tend to be healthier and wealthier than other older people.» —“Suburbs Are Graying Faster Than Big Cities” by Sam Roberts New York Times June 12, 2007.
