This really got me fired up. According to a US City Sustainability Ranking from Sustainlane, DC ranks #12 on its list of the top 50 U.S. cities on a variety of factors from air quality to transportation. We rate beautifully on public transit, green buildings, local food and agriculture, and city commuting. Unfortunately, not so much when it comes to tap water quality, metro congestion, and affordable housing. The cities that kicked our ass? Read ’em and weep:
- Portland, OR
- San Francisco, CA
- Seattle, WA
- Chicago, IL
- Oakland, CA
- New York City, NY
- Boston, MA
- Philadelphia, PA
- Denver, CO
- Minneapolis, MN

Hey,
That’s a great list. I really enjoyed the study because I thought DC would rank higher than that.
