And I noticed how you disregard transit but yet used an area that has great access to Miami's transit options such as Brickell.
Yeah yeah, you've been to both. And so have they.

Miami - 76

DC - 74

You can continue to make whatever you want up.

Please let's not go there. You are the person that posted an image of Downtown Fort Lauderdale and passed that off as being downtown Miami. I live in DC and my mother's family lives in Miami. Please speak on what you know.

Actually it's the other way around, I made a mistake. Who cares, you clearly don't know Miami. But why am I arguing with you, the numbers are not on your side?

Do you know me? Because you are nobody to prove anything to.

Walk score only gives cumulative scores based on city limits, which greatly benefits Miami, a city of less than 36 sq miles.

I don't need to know you by the fruits of your comments. Someone who knows nothing reveals it fast enough. Better you remain quiet next time

So basically it's a worthless study since all city limits are different sizes. It is the reason why they have Miami higher than DC and Chicago and one spot lower than Philadelphia. Laughable.
