Explanation: Eastern cities were early adopters of rapid transit (e.g., Boston's subway, New York's elevated/subway lines) and have large downtowns and more shared/mixed housing. The first modern urban freeways/expressways appeared in the West (e.g., Arroyo Seco Parkway in Los Angeles, 1940); eastern cities generally added freeways later due to dense, older urban fabric.
