There is nothing impressive about concrete and more concrete. This is more impressive to walk through: Nature.

Mesquite and Palms among others, thrive in Phoenix...Buy the way, it's now 76 degrees in Phoenix.☺

Does this list take into account surviving your walk?

“Does this list take into account surviving your walk?”

I would imagine so, yes. Can’t write a review when dead.

I would say that in most of those cities, you’d better be ready to run and duck into an ally at the first sign of trouble.

[Maskot]

More like a list of cities where you are most likely to get murdered in…

No thanks

[sopo]

What , no rats? Philly’s got rats, just look down any side street as you walk by.

Los Angeles? Has the author ever been there? Maybe they thought Beverly Hills was Los Angeles.

Is this the Top 10 Run For Your Life cities?

[Veto!]

I’ve been to and walked in all of these cities except Portland.

They used to be lovely, walkable places but you take your life in your hands now.
My daughter flew to Seattle a few years ago to get a passport in a hurry. I told her to be sure to take a cab from the airport right to the Federal Building. She did and had to step over and around addicts and bums on the sidewalk in front of even that government building.

Isn’t #7 where Juicy Smollay was brutally attacked, doused with bleach, and hanged, at 2 a.m., by a pair of dedicated MAGA fans?

[End Times Sentinel]

San Fran and Seattle are off my list, just because of the topography. In Seattle I changed my mind on a restaurant only a block away because I didn’t want to traverse the hill in front of me, and I’m not even morbidly obese (just lazy).

[ChicagoConservative27]

Correct

My grandson went to visit a pastor that left NH to start a new parish in New Jersey. He spent a week there and had to walk to to the bus terminal for his trip back to NH.
He started at the Port Authority and said he passed several homeless people including drug addicts, and one stripper.

[ladyjane]

Boston? LOL Some parts are walkable. Some parts are mugable.

[Rummyfan]

The corner of MLK Boulevard and Malcolm X drive is always nice this time of year.

LOL! Don't forget your body armor.

8. Los Angeles, California

LOL! Really?!

[CatOwner]

I guess if they’re going to focus on large cities, this is the kind of list we get. There might actually be some out of the way places where walking in these cities would be fun and relatively safe, but based on the news and crime statistics, I wouldn’t want to walk there.
