26. It depends on population density
First of all, buses suck. The ride is uncomfortable. Many times there are crazy people on the bus. I do not like the bus.

I do like light rail. It is generally faster than driving. Light rail only makes sense in very dense areas because of cost of building the infrastructure.

Other countries tend to have more public transportation are denser countries and poorer countries. When folks are wealthy, they want their own cars.
