    Off the top of my head I think the best we’ve got is New York, Boston, Chicago, and Philly for the big cities, and for small cities you can either pick something on the edges of one of the big cities which kinda ride the coattails of the big cities transit or other isolated small towns that never redeveloped for cars, though those seem few and far between.

      Portland is quickly starting to climb into that group. A couple more light rail extensions and some more growth on their various tram lines and things are going to be world class for PDX.

      Seattle is also starting to build out transit at a fair clip, but it’s 5-10 years from having it really start to be good. I was really pleased to see that they are doing more than one transit project at a time. So many cities seem to be able to do one construction project at a time and its really frustrating at how slow things change at that rate.
