New York, San Francisco and Boston top the list of the 10 best cities for public transit according to the updated Transit Score rankings by Redfin.

Transit Score, a tool by Redfin company Walk Score, rates locations based on how convenient they are to public transportation. Each of the top three cities has a Transit Score above 70, meaning it has an excellent transit rating, with transit being a convenient option for most trips.

While the rank order for the six best cities for public transit has stayed the same since 2012 when Transit Score first launched, there was a lot of movement at the bottom of the top-10 list.

In 7th place, Seattle has a Transit Score of 59.6, up 2.6 points since 2016, the biggest jump among the top 10. Honolulu gained 1.6 points of Transit Score since 2016 and entered the top 10 list for the first time, replacing Miami.
