It's probably an old moniker that stuck... Kinda like how Detroit will still be called the "motor city" even after all of the auto plants have closed...

Dave got a garden (a crappy one), Sixxxer has a garden (a slightly less crappy one), and so do I (about as crappy as Sixxxers). Once you get away from the metropolitan areas close to Philly and NYC everyone has a garden in front of their house.
