Spring just arrived, summer is somewhere around the corner and gas prices are surging, again. Time to start
evaluating the cost of any potential cross-country road trips this season. Better yet, it’s time to start re-evaluating
where you live. I am. Sustain
Lane takes a close look at some of America’s 50 biggest cities and breaks them down into a list of the 10
best prepared for an oil crisis should one rise. For the most part many will not come as a surprise; NYC has the
most means of metro transportation available and a city not afraid to utilize it and well, Honolulu, on the island of
Oahu isn’t exactly that huge. You could walk the entire island if needed, but seriously, cities are ranked according to
factors like recent city commute practices, metro area public transportation, sprawl, traffic congestion, local food,
and wireless network access. With all the details found in the article you’ll want to know how your city stacks up and
what makes it best prepared for an ill oil situation. I already abhor driving unless it’s on long open roads and
judging from these factors I’d be quite out of luck here in Tampa.
The best prepared are as follows:
- New York City
- Boston
- San
Francisco - Chicago
- Philadelphia
- Portland
- Honolulu
- Seattle
- Baltimore
- Oakland
