Should there be any doubt that LA belongs among the big 6 urban US cities?

Beyond this, SF has no rapid transit, as it were.

And for a city of its size, MUNI Metro is shameful. The remainder of SF muni is not unlike Bostons T. Under serviced by good reliable and efficient transit for its level of density. Essentially Muni metro everywhere else in SF is a glorified streetcar network running at glacial speeds, and even still, has limited reach.

Is this your website?

Welcome to CalUrbanist.com. My name is Steve Boland, and I am a transit planner for Muni in San Francisco. Previously, I was a multimodal transportation planner at Nelson\Nygaard in San Francisco and Los Angeles. From 2001 to 2014, I blogged about urban planning in the Bay Area and posted city photos and custom-designed transit maps at San Francisco Cityscape (sfcityscape.com). CalUrbanist.com is the current repository for my maps and posters — see below.
