I'll probably get some blowback for this, but I think there are very few urban neighborhoods in the United States in which one can live car-free comfortably. Factoring out NYC since it's such an anomaly, how many cities have a large quantity of neighborhoods that meet all of the following criteria:

1) Within walking distance (0.5 mile, 10 minutes) of quality amenities
2) Within walking distance of quality transit (heavy rail or non-streetcar light rail)
3) Good urban design
4) Safe at all hours
5) Non-ghetto (middle class or higher)
