Is a non-restrictive relative clause a subordinate clause?
a. The mayor, who lives in this house, has not been seen for days.
This is a non-restrictive relative clause, since it provides supplementary information about the mayor, but is not essential to the sentence – if the clause were omitted, it would still be known which mayor is meant. If the bold part is deleted the remaining part provides the sense. (Wikipedia)
Is a non-restrictive relative clause such as this a subordinate clause?
"A nonessential (nonrestrictive) clause is a subordinate clause that is not essential to the meaning of the sentence but merely adds an idea to the sentence." [1]
Thus, by definition, a nonrestrictive clause is also a subordinate clause.
