Is this photo taken at the start of a car race?

Not as far as I'm aware

It's a serendipitous streetview guess the city moment

Getting a South America vibe, but not much more than that yet

it looks like the inner suburb of copenhagen where i lived when i studied abroad. somewhere in amager.
― treeship., Tuesday, 30 March 2021 09:43 (three years ago) link
there aren't leaves on the trees, so i think it's a temperate or cold climate. those terracotta roofs and the small cars seem northern european. i don't see a bike lane though so it's likely not in denmark.

Looks Eastern European to me

Pristina?

big fat ugly raised steel wired armoured cables on wooden poles rather than sunk (and with a scruffy loop left hanging there) suggests nobody loves this place!

Matazlan?

Or Mazatlan, even.

Definitely feeling Mexico for this (but also feeling Brazil hmm)

Not Mazatlan

Block of flats is confusing me. Looks sort of eastern European but on the other hand green shutters feels Latin

What do we think the smelting looking building with the chimneys is on the left? Behind the little building that might be a street church
― cherry blossom, Tuesday, 30 March 2021 11:07 (three years ago) link
perhaps they don't bury cables or build too high because it is in a seismic zone that frequently has earthquakes? god knows somewhere in Chile?
― calzino, Tuesday, 30 March 2021 11:08 (three years ago) link
There seem to be mountains in the background too, though I have no purchase in this game right now, just mentioning it.

the unburied cables basically rules out western europe.
there might be an earthquake connection but generally speaking buried cables are a wealth thing even in earthquake zones. you can see the rich neighborhoods of LA from space becuase if you can see tree cover then you're looking at a neighborhood that could afford to bury. https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-2003-feb-09-re-pole9-story.html

Nope. Is it too early for another pic?

I've exhausted my options. There's 3 or 4 I like for it but not enough to put forward

my last guess is Chillán.
― calzino, Tuesday, 30 March 2021 21:14 (three years ago) link
I’m still unreasonably tied to the idea this might be northern Mexico so will say Hermosillo.
― Scampo di tutti i Scampi (ShariVari), Tuesday, 30 March 2021 21:24 (three years ago) link
ive gone off the idea of it being chile now. but definitely pacific and in latin america (nice and broad)
― 《Myst1kOblivi0n》 (jim in vancouver), Tuesday, 30 March 2021 21:31 (three years ago) link
Not Chillán or Hermosillo

the mixture of small cars (especially VWs) and a pickup truck certainly feels like mexico or s.america to me

Mexicali?

I thought Mexicali, but it doesn't look dry enough to me.

One thing I've learned is that Mexico has a very large number of small to medium-sized cities that are extensively mapped on Google Streetview. This may or may not be relevant to the picture in question.
