PORTLAND A FOOT'S MICHAEL ANDERSON RESEARCHED THE US NEWS AND WORLD REPORT RANKINGS

Michael is one of the best transit related investigative reporters.
He is not beholden to any corporate structure so he has independence that most of our more familiar news people do not have.

In any scientific study the results must be able to be duplicated by other people to be valid.
Michael is unable to duplicate US News results using their exact same  criteria.

Something stinks. It turns out Portland is #7, not #1.

Oh Jason McCuff is going to have a fit when he sees Seattle ranks above Portland in more ways than one!
