English term or phrase: as it is quickly noticeable
Hi everyone,

Could you please help me out with this phrase?

As it is quickly noticeable, Edmonton’s dwellers heavily rely on cars due to multiple reasons: in fact, approximately 55% of those getting around by cars are work commuters, while another 45% of people surveyed travels by car for reasons related to their business.

My choice:
As it is clearly noted/As you can see/ As you can notice/ As it may be noted/As you can appreciate

Thanks

neutral  writeaway: I see a difference between quickly and immediately. anyway, all the information was already conveyed in good English in the answer above. /I see you managed to convince the asker. But immediately conveys a different meaning. The 2 are not interchangeable
1 hr
  -> "In good English" referred to the ST. There is indeed a difference between quickly and immediately, but this is a commonly used formulation to introduce the findings of a survey or investigation, prodding the reader into thinking they should agree..
agree  Jean-Claude Gouin: One could also say, in some cases, 'right off the bat' ... in the U.S. ... // You're right on both counts, Barbara. I couldn't think of the expression 'informal register' ...
5 hrs
  -> Thanks. That would be an alternative if an informal register was called for, but "evident" would still be needed..
