Bring your car: America's 10 least walkable cities
It may come as no surprise that San Francisco ranks as America's #1 walkable city, but what about the rest of the country? After compiling a list of the "walkability" of 40 American cities, Walk Score gives us a good idea of what cities are pedestrian friendly and which ones require cars. The bottom ten cities on the list give us a few places where pedestrians are far and few between and driving is the name of the game (read: expect to spend a lot of money on gas). So where can you plan on packing away your walking shoes and donning your driving cap?- Jacksonville

I disagree with your title. Clicking through, the article lists the *TOP* 40 - not America's 10 least walkable cities.
Might consider revising it.

You're absolutely right! I re-worded it so that it makes more sense... sorry for the confusion!

I live in Nashville- so true. And I live in one of the "walkable" neighborhoods- while walking from home to the mall takes only 10 minutes, half of the way I have to walk on asphalt because there is no sidewalk. Oh, and it's so hot I'm sweating within 1 minute of being out the door.
