Gary is in the Chicago area, sure, but I don't think anyone considers it a suburb. A number of towns in the Calumet region (n.w. Indiana) are not suburban at all, although some, like Merriville, definitely are.

Doesn't the NYC metro area extend across the Delaware into PA?

New York has the majority of its suburbs in other states. NJ and CT are both far more than the towns you mentioned.

There are actually buildings and lots along the KS-MO line in Kansas City that are partially in one state, and partially in the other. Go here:

Ironically, the building housing the Missouri Division of Employment Security is partially in Kansas.

The same situation exists along parts of the NY-CT boundary:

Yes, Pike County PA is actually in the NYC metro area.
