Surprised not to see San Francisco at 30%+. It’s got a great transit system with very high utilization, though maybe it’s regions rather than cities that are analyzed here.

Calling BART and Caltrain "great" is a bit of a stretch.

Even compared to the system in, say, Sydney, it sucks. Heck, it sucks compared to Auckland's famously bad public transit.
