Detroit ranked 36th of the USA's 36 largest cities listed by best urban policies. That's right, DEAD LAST. The study was commissioned by Zipcar, which you have probably never heard of or used if you live here, because Detroit only has Owncar. You see, Zipcar is a company that lets people that don't need cars everyday share them. Anyway, the Motor City did not do well in this based on things like percent of hybrid cars, the number of workers using public transportation, unemployment, violent crime rates, and property crime rates. [Update: Well what do you know? They DO exist here! But it is still Owncar city.] [Fast Company]
