This is pretty cool, although it would be nice to see the different types of transportation across the same city. I see dramatic differences in the visualizations, sure, but they seem as dramatic as the differences in the layout and structure of these cities.

While I'm giving feedback, I must say I had to pause and re-read this sentence many times: "Human helps people move almost twice as much in six weeks". As I'm not familiar with the app, I went straight to that sentence and was baffled about some person who helps people change their place of residence a lot more for 6 weeks, but a lot more... compared to what? Took a while to arrive at "An app named 'Human' helps get people to move around more than they otherwise would within six weeks of beginning usage".

Thanks for the feedback.

We rendered visuals for different activities in all cities. Click one of the cities on the homepage for details. We've also shared all visuals (dark and light) and some bonus gifs on Dropbox: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/58chppkj2ckim7s/AAAchKhSL56mjaaiA...

I gotta agree with TallGuyShort. As a huge fan of mass transit, I think "motorized" should differentiate between automobile and train/subway.
New York is missing a graphic
Thanks! Fixed.
you can see the different types of transportation across the same city if you see each city's page: http://cities.human.co/posts/mexico.html
