I have no doubt it's better. But they do rank worst across the board. When you play stupid games like cram million upon millions of people into a city and then sprawl the suburbs out further than the eye can see you win stupid prizes like worst air quality in the nation.
All I wonder is how long are they going to do the same thing and expect a different result before they fix it?
