This is really getting ridiculous. It's like judging an ugly girl contest. They are both a total mess when it comes to transit if even its changing, slowly, a huge indicator in what makes something urban or not, and both have many decades before they can even begin to resemble anything walkable. They are both (along with Dallas-Fort Worth, Phoenix...) perfect examples of the New American city, including the good, the bad, and the oh-so very ugly.
But, if you don't mind hour commutes, pollution, walkability...urbanity is the last thing on your mind, and you'll find a welcome mat waiting for you, here.
