Cities with good public transport were created with the horses and walking in mind. Cities in the South and West, mostly had cars already in mind by the time public transport became feasible. Public transport in DFW would be a nightmare and way too fricking expensive to implement on a practical scale. Beijing the subway systems were fricking huge and you'd have to implement it on that scale. LA's mass transit is also a nightmare.

I take the bus in NOLA. It picks me up a block from my house and drops me off a block from my workplace in the CBD. Way cheaper than paying for monthly parking downtown.

It's a shame most people turn their noses up at it. It's more reliable than most people think.

I ride the light rail in Houston all the time. Beats paying for parking at an event, waiting to get in/out of said event and also not getting a fricking DWI
