The good news: It's better for the environment, and, depending on where you live, it may be cheaper than owning a car.

That's according to a recent report by Deutsche Bank, which analyzes the cost of living and compares prices among the largest cities around the world.
The report sources prices from Expatistan, a site that tracks cost-of-living expenses in over 200 countries, for a "monthly ticket public transport" in nearly 50 cities.
