Not sure if you're being sarcastic or not - but in case you're not - seeing "10 cigarette butts" - instead of, say, piles of trash, dung, old broken down cars, and/or drug paraphernalia - seems pretty clean to me, as cities come.
Yeah, it's amazing how different peoples' expectations are. A bunch of cigarette butts would seem horrible compared to a Japanese train station, but compared to anything in Latin America it would be extremely clean.
Living here, i disagree. Just on my way to the train station i saw at least 10 cigarette butts on the ground. And its like that across the whole city.
