Denver may be many things. However, I do not think it's anyone's definition of a walkable, pre WWII Sunbelt city.
You would be wrong. Well, maybe about the sunbelt stuff, though some consider it part of the sunbelt. It has a lot of pre WW II neighborhoods, e.g. the currently uber-hip Highlands, Berkeley to the north of Highlands, Sloan's Lake, Capital Hill, Washington Park, Five POints and many more.
And yes, nei, why do you disbelieve me? The 40th parallel actually goes through Boulder County, on Baseline Road. It was once the dividing line between the Kansas and Nebraska territories.
Of the cities you named, St. Louis' walkscore is 61, just ahead of Denver. Louisville (I assume you mean Kentucky) and Little Rock are both 40 and Memphis is 39. Also, Louisville is at the 38th parallel. http://citylatitudelongitude.com/KY/Louisville.htm

I didn't disbelieve you [on that topic]. The disbelief was whether Denver was a sunbelt city not whether it was at 40°. Maybe my post was unclear.

Denver looks walkable in the way that Portland and Seattle do. It's not NYC, it's not San Francisco, but it still looks relatively walkable.
Though they are all certainly vastly different in most ways, Denver, Seattle, Portland, Los Angeles, Oakland, San Diego all sort of remind me of each other to a certain extent.
