Foxes are territorial. If they identify a good source of food they wil stick around - that much is true. They will however keep down the other pests though. Really, the urban fox does not do much harm provided its needs are met. Most people are completely oblivious to their presence in their neighbourhoods.
A good way to detect a fox is by smell - they have a particularly strong animal odour in places they frequently rest up in - dense scrub, woodpiles, etc.
