Compare Japan to China and you'll get one view. Compare India to China and it's a different perspective.
I live in Shanghai (moved from Manhattan) and I find the streets to generally be much cleaner, unless you're talking about the area around central park.

Much safer too. I do miss the cleanliness of my Michigan upbringing though, and I miss fresh air...

Was nice when the Expo was on and they forced the factories to turn off.
