G'day all.......
You'll probably find that foxes survive surprisingly well in many of
your "greener" suburbs. Very versatile creatures.
As for hunting them.... Try a 12-gauge with BB or No1 shot. Walking
across-country kicking through the rough and shooting as they "flush". Of
course a good dog helps, but isn't really necessary. A friend of ours used
to do better 100 over a winter's worth of weekends. ....... Or whistling
them up with a "squealing rabbit" type predator call.
When pelt prices were good here, there was a lot of shooting pressure
but still quite a few foxes. Now we use 1080, or at least most of my
neighbours do. Take your pick

Certainly there will still be foxes in urban areas, we have loads
now, the point being that it is a rather sad commentary that the
only place they may be able to survive is in an urban area.
