Our paths stay pretty busy as well, especially during the beautiful weather.
Yes, Those are nice bike trails.What neighborhoods do they connect to? Where are the shops,grocery stores,housing,parks? This is what the Beltline is.
That pics looks like its some organized bike ride.Where are the people on foot?Thats not vibrancy.This is basically a trail by a river.
The Beltine is means in which to get around as well as exercise. This is why you arent understanding because you arent use to urbanity

Okay, there's plenty of hills of this level around Phoenix when I think of a hilly city I think of Pittsburgh or San Francisco where the side walks are so steep you need stairs.

Having been to both Phoenix and Atlanta, I think the main difference is that the hills in Phoenix are more around the suburbs while the Downtown is flat. In Atlanta, there are rolling hills even in Downtown and Midtown. Then you have several very prominent hills like Kennesaw Mountain and Stone Mountain in the suburbs.

Not sure what you're talking about around Phoenix not having urbanity. You can connect to every urban area of Phoenix on the canal paths, there's something like 100 miles or more of them.
This particular path is directly connected to downtown Tempe, which is this:
You can also take the greenway North from this exact area and head right into downtown Scottsdale:
You can also connect directly to downtown Phoenix by going West.

I agree with that 100% but you don't have to go far from downtown Phoenix to find hills, if that's what you desire. Homes around South Mountain, Camelback, Mummy Mountain, Phoenix Mountains, North Mountain all have hills around them. They're suburbs yes, but only 5-9 miles from downtown Phoenix depending on where exactly you're starting.

Jeez.Just because one is more hilly doesnt mean the others arent. Why is this even an argument?Its well known Atlanta isnt flat. Its such an obvious thing of you have been to Atlanta and then othe cities like Dallas or Phoenix. This is just silly
Why would there be mountains all around the city and no hills? Atlanta isnt in a valley.I dont even think there are any big cities on the east coast in a "valley"
Those pics you posted are in the middle of nowhere. lol' We are talking about the city and surrounding suburbs in Atlanta

This is a City versus City comparison, everything gets debated. Natural settings is a pretty big part of a city for a lot of people.
In my case you're talking to an avid cyclist, I pickup a bike in every city I travel to for work and seek out a route using an application called Strava searching for the largest hills I can find on the feature called segment explorer. In SF for example this literally kicks my rear end, I'll end up climbing 1000'+ in 20 or so miles without even really trying.

LOL
You dont agree with tha because you said BUT and still trying to convince otherwise.
Ive been to PHX and PHX feels just like Dallas in that its flat as a pancake compared to Atlanta. Just driving through in around Atlanta,the roads are curvy and hill. Sometimes very steep inclines.
Here is an areas 30 minutes South of Downtown in an are called Chattahoochie Hills. The name should tell you something.
One of the top EDM music Festivals was planning to move there this years. Before that,the Tomorroworld Festival had been held there
