What kind of bicycle is best for riding around a suburban area with a trailer?

I'm looking to get a bicycle to use for general transportation around town, but I also need it to be able to pull a bike trailer at times, as I will be using it to go to the laundromat and grocery store. I've been reading about the different types of bikes, and I get the impression that a road bike would make it difficult to pull the trailer, but a mountain bike would not be right for the suburban area. It seems that there are a thousand different definitions of "comfort bike," "commuter bike," or "hybrid bike," so it's hard to make a judgment about these.

I do intend to go to a few bike stores and ask most of my questions there, but I would at least like to know where to start; I don't want to just walk in, admit I know nothing, and ask what bike the employee thinks I should get. :)

Thank you.
 
I would recommend a mountain bike due to the fact that you can change gears, this will make it almost any bike you want it. For suburbs try to get an aluminium based body or if you have some extra cash get the Titanium one. I tried 3 bike types Mountain all the way.
