I think Wisconsin has several good candidates.
-Kenosha/Racine as mentioned above. Both are their own cities but there’s also a lot of suburban area and you can’t really call it suburbs of Chicago or Milwaukee
-There’s a bit of rurals in between them and the cities (and they’re not exactly the same region), but Rockford/Beloit/Janesville sort of connects the edge of the Chicago suburbs to Dane county. All 3 have a bit of a rust belt feel too
-The Milwaukee exurbs expand pretty far west towards Madison. There’s several lake towns and random towns with suburban feel, but they’re way too far to be considered MKE suburbs. I’m not even sure what you’d call this region
-The area between Milwaukee and Green Bay doesn’t have as much rural area as you would think. It’s split between Sheboygan, Fond Du Lac, and the beginning of the BOW counties. None of these are large enough to constitute their own metro areas and none of them are suburbs, but they collectively form a mini northeast Wisconsin region
-In other states, I think the area between Dayton and Cincy is pretty populated (but I don’t know much about it)
-There are also several examples of mid-sized cities that happen to lie on the outskirts of a larger city’s suburbs. I’m not sure if this would count
