In fact, based on the little micro delivery truck, this photo has to be during the past 15 - 20 years.

Yeah good, one, thats probably one of the worst pictures of downtown sac I have ever seen. But even with that, it still looks more like a downtown than SJ's worse pic.

What's with the 2nd picture? Is that Sacramento shrouded in smog? That's nastier than the most polluted days I've ever seen in Los Angeles.

It's definitely a recent pic, since the Fairmont annex was completed just a few years back. That amount of traffic was pretty typical on Park Ave at midday, especially on the weekends. All the traffic is on the freeway.

How does one simple downtown pic trigger a bunch of city rivalry? What's the deal, people? Who cares?... a city is a city, for the most part. None of them have ever really impressed me all that much, compared to the natural stuff. If the city is your thing and you really like one or two in particular, that's cool, but why dump on the others?...

It's part of Majin's "I hate suburbs" series. Being a teenager can be really stressful.

That is true, lol. Santa Clara Blvd on a weekend and Santana Row is off the chain. I will give San Jose props for having the best looking women in the Bay Area.
