Ranked by relevance and common usage.
Keep "urbanly" when the sentence already sounds natural, when a synonym would add unintended emphasis, or when readers need the most familiar wording. A synonym should clarify or sharpen the message, not simply make the sentence look more varied.
If two options seem close, choose the one that best matches the audience and purpose of the sentence.
Choose a synonym only if it keeps the core idea of "urbanly" intact in the sentence you are editing.
Check whether the replacement sounds more formal, casual, emotional, technical, or forceful than the original word.
Read the full sentence after the swap. Keep the synonym only when the sentence becomes clearer or more precise.
Review note: Synonym lists are ranked with lexical data and reviewed for practical writing value. Use the comparison notes, sentence evidence, and source labels together; a high-ranking synonym can still be wrong when the audience, register, or grammar changes.
After choosing a replacement for "urbanly", read the sentence once for meaning and once for rhythm. The best synonym should feel natural in the full sentence, not only accurate in a word list.
If the synonym makes the sentence slower, vaguer, or more dramatic than intended, keep "urbanly" or choose a simpler alternative from the closest-match group.

Rural Britain, except in its picturesqueness, with the peer, the squire and the parson, Giles and Hodge, and their ploughs and their flocks and herds, as objects of the landscape, has been beyond the interests of those within whose vision there are mainly pitheads, chimney-stacks or tramp steamers, of people who are street-bound, of a population whose minds function urbanly and suburbanly.

Harding is a small-town man. Yet there is more misapprehension concerning Harding among the small-towners than there is among those of his critics who dwell urbanly, save among a certain noisy section who dwell urbanly in the editorial rooms of various daily newspapers. But both urbanly and suburbanly there is plenty.

each skin meticulously meted and matched, each shoe molded and manipulated almost as if it were a rare sculpture... yet each design of superb simplicity; meant to literally live with you, urbanly-suburbanly, for a long long time.
