While it has the 2nd-highest percentage of walking professionals, it also has the 2nd-highest crime rating in the state and the fewest fitness walkers.Memphis finished #1--because of its wide sidewalks set back from traffic--and #73 in the US. Chattanooga, which has the highest percentage of people who use mass transit and the 2nd-lowest number of cars per household in Tennessee, was #2.

Memphis is #1 on at least two things. They are #1 in crime and #1 in walking. This is something to be proud about or is it? Walking in harms way. Their ranking should have included the safest cities to walk in determining their final list.
