To be honest, I feel like this vid wasn't too fair to Los Angeles..

I watched the entire video. Yup the author was unfair to LA. If they did better research, they'd know how great and easy it is to get around the rail system as long as you live and work near the stations.

Phoenix and Houston are better examples of cities impossible to live without a car.

Other than that, great video.

Lost me at 5:06. Done.

Furthermore, the problem we have in L.A. is overpopulation, not a lack of buses. We can always add more buses if we need them, but when we have people continue to move here and want to be able to drive everywhere, that's the problem.

Congrats, you basically named two of the only cities in AMERICA that have worse transit/walkability than LA.

LA is also more walkable than Kzakhstan and Afghanistan. Congrats! Youre in the top 50 of America!!

#highstandards and no, travel the world. LA is a hellhole. Culture yourselves people.

Rail stops and crowded areas are unaffordable and a hub for homeless people. We have a light rail that runs through some of the trendy areas in Houston.
