What cities have the best light rail transist system?

Question

I use the RTD-Denver rail system and it’s great. I wonder what cities are getting the most use of this system....environmentally and demographically.

Answer 1

Heavy rail subway?  NYC wins everytime.

Light rail?  I'd say Toronto, Philadelphia or San Francisco.  SF has the advantage of being a very compact city, so a large fraction of its citizens are near a small number of lines.  Also the weather lends itself to transit.

Answer 2

Portland Oregon has a very nice light rail system the cars are clean and they are expanding at a fast rate the only draw back is the amount of crime at the stations
