I agree with Jim Butcher that it is more "modern fantasy", or maybe magical realism.
Perdido Street Station might fit the bill, but I tend to think more of books like those by Anita Blake as coming under this sub-genre.

I always think of it as something fantastical taking place within a city setting.

I've read just the one book by de Lint, and thought it was great.
