I'd be willing to bet that a lot of these so-called experts on Atlanta's 'walkablity' have limited to no experience with the city's urban and intown neighborhoods. There is plenty of walkability to be had between the neighborhoods, particularly those that ring Piedmont Park and line up on the Peachtree Corridor from Midtown to Buckhead. Not only that, but these neighborhoods are far more desirable than anything I ever saw in Cincinnati.
But if I suppose that walking dingy, tired and dated urban streets is your thing, then Cincinnati, definitely. The only thing they ever inspired in me was a desire to leave.

That's not true...I don't remember reading any claims that Atlanta was MORE urban than Cincinnati - it may or may not be, I don't know. The responses about Atlanta's urbanity were to your claims that "Atlanta isn't a real city" and other such nonsense. There is a large difference in responding to childish remarks such as those and claiming that "my city is more urban than yours". Isn't it time to grow up and stop this foolishness?

Does anyone else think it's ridiculous to have TWO Cincinnati vs. Atlanta threads?
