  You can also do this thing called walking. I didn’t know that in the United States that is considered suspicious behavior.

    Im from europe, train stations here are a little more than walking distance apart.

      The public transit isn’t that great where I live by European standards. I use a Brompton folding bike to make up the difference. It’s great for trains

  This is my favorite argument from carfolk, because they’ll treat walking one block from a bus station as some cardinal sin but will happily walk four blocks from a parking spot.

  Cities with transit typically have several different ways of getting around.

  For my last job, done choices were:

  • express bus plus walk a couple blocks
  • train and walk a mile
  • train to subway and walk a couple blocks
  • drive to subway and walk a couple blocks

  I’m not even counting scooter and bike share but I chose each of these options depending g on what was best at the time. But my most common choice was the train and walk a mile. It was a bit of a walk but I didn’t have to deal with people or waiting and it was close enough.

  It’s common to bus to the train station, and yes train stations downtown are where many people work.
