Why do I bring this up? Well, because New York’s continued growth and success was not always certain. By the 1950’s, New York peaked for the first time, and after that people began leaving the city for the suburbs - similar to what happened in Cleveland, Detroit, etc.

Springfield has a bus network, and we know of at least bus lines 22 and 22a, as in the episode “lost our Lisa” we learn that route 22 only runs on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday; she rides it on Tuesday, when 22a is running, and ends up in the middle of nowhere.

Things reached the point where New York City nearly declared bankruptcy in 1975; and was only saved from doing so after President Ford went back on his initial plan to veto any bail out of the city.

“Ok but New York was always going to recover because it’s the most important city!” Boston also experienced decades of decline and has been recovering since then, and its population was less than Detroit or Cleveland at its peak

To conclude, Santiago is a beautiful city with great public transportation and walkability. It’s not perfect, but no city is, and the city is still getting better. (11/11)

Now let’s get to the Springfield subway. Were shown 2 maps of the system in the series. This first one shows the subway system to be mainly a downtown circular, with the system also being abandoned in the episode it’s shown in.
