Is there any?

Where whites, Blacks, Latinos, Native Americans and Asians get along?

Where police and community get along?

Lehigh Valley, Macungie and Emmaus are quintessential middle-class suburba even as slightly more upscale transplants move into the area to take advantage of the affordable housing and natural amenities.

Probably easier to identify suburban areas that don't fit this description.
Most suburbs in a given metro have demographic diversity, pretty good social trust and amicable police-citizen relations. Texas, Florida, NC, New Jersey, Washington and (even) California have areas fitting what you're talking about.

Parts of LA and Orange Counties, though with fairly low levels of black populations. Fullerton and Orange come to mind for example.

Beaverton OR and Kent WA immediately came to mind, although Kent is on the more working class end.

Yeah, the best examples are Gwinnett County GA and Fort Bend County TX. Maybe Fairfax county as well.

Whites and Blacks get along in that part of NJ?

I thought that would have been the case in Middlesex and Central Jersey.

Most suburbs.  Much of Northern Virginia is like this, very diverse and not a lot of racial/police issues. 

A lot of those issues appear to be more correlated with education levels.  Educated suburbs with lots of job opportunities bring in diverse talent and have less crime and social issues.

Can comply, I live in Fort Hunt, Virginia and worked with like 15 Ghanaians at Lowe’s and my best friend is Ghanaian. My brother has like a third black friends third white and some Asian and Latino and Jewish. My supervisor was from Guam and the guy who hired me I think Hungary? Pakistani driving school instructor from Stafford who talked about tourists smoking weed or something like that, an Eritrean Muslim coworker who drinks, some trans people, Korean restaurants and newspapers, Spanish newspapers, Italian immigrants, out of staters, Mormons that work for the CIA

Annandale in particular I’ve seen called WWC, where I live is sort of mayo and bougee and full of single family houses and like hills, septic forests, and culs de sac. It’s diversifying slightly tho

Fort Bend is an extremely good example. Very wealthy too.

Yep, I see it now. Maybe Fort Bend is not the best example about middle class, but it does have middle class cities like Missouri City. Sugarland is mixed but it is not middle class by any means.
