vvvslaxman Posted August 15, 2013 Author Posted August 15, 2013 Let me start with one.. this is area specific. US http://www.smartplanet.com/blog/cities/top-10-most-walkable-cities-in-the-us/640 Top 10 most walkable cities in the U.S. 1. New York City 2. San Francisco 3. Boston 4. Chicago 5. Philadelphia 6. Seattle 7. Washington D.C. 8. Miami 9. Minneapolis 10. Oakland
The Outsider Posted August 15, 2013 Posted August 15, 2013 ^ I agree partly with their list, but found their criteria for walkable to be pretty dumb. Walking in Oakland? Sure there are footpaths and good accessibility, but I would never walk in Oakland after dark.

vvvslaxman Posted August 15, 2013 Author Posted August 15, 2013 Are you asking for personal opinions or articles? Either.. Even the articles are somewhat based on personal opinion. It is difficult to gauge certain factors. Downside though is there will be so many lists :) that we won't even have time to discuss about. http://www.toptenreviews.com/ I occasionally check this site when i am in the market for buying any electronic gadget or software.
