Close.city he launched that lets you see how walkable a city is for your needs: grocery stores, public transit, restaurants, gyms, parks, coffee shops, etc. I took some screenshots of our major cities with the above parameters to see how they fare, and felt it would spark some interesting discussion. You can change the filters, check out different cities, or just play around:

Note it's only US for now (and weirdly no data for DC), and the images are roughly around the same scale, but there doesn't appear to be a way to view / control that. Hopefully future updates address that -- and make it easier to compare cities
