I've never been a fan of how People For Bikes ranks these cities.
For example, my city scores 48, while a neighbouring municipality is 52, but as a cyclist, that one is SIGNIFICANTLY better across all areas: protected bike lanes, trails, connections (i.e. complete streets), etc.
On that note, I can't even imagine what a city with a 90+ score would be like!

Interesting ratings, some of these seem more progress-based than who has the best overall infrastructure. That said, I'm really happy to see cities like Paris and Manhattan on here, who have made big strides to work on being better about micromobility and pedestrian safety. The more large cities deploy protected bike lanes, the more smaller cities and towns will get inspired and follow them.
Especially cities/towns that forbid their DOTs from traveling to transit conferences to hear how cities like Montreal and Vancouver pulled off their rail and bike infrastructure on a lower budget.
