Reply to comment by Ilanaspax in Commute from NYC to NJ? by [deleted]

The trains are crowded at whatever hour, so that's safe, and it's a helluva lot cheaper taking a Lyft home to the Heights or B-L from JSQ than Brooklyn!

And? The train doesn’t deposit you into your apartment…one still has to walk or possibly take another method of transit to get home unless you live on top of a path stop. Even living close to a path stop I know plenty of women who will take a cab ride home from JSQ even though they lived a walkable distance if it’s late.

It all adds up so it’s something to consider when people want to make blanket statements about the convenience of taking the path home at 3 am. Unless you live on top of a stop you’re going to also need to figure out how to get home from the station if the lightrail has stopped running.

Is your reading comprehension really that bad?

Do you even know what point you are attempting to make or are you that stupid that you really think no one else is aware taking public transit is cheaper than Uber? Or do you just panic and make random excuses so you can pretend the path is perfect to make sure your rental has a tenant?

The point is that the late night walk home from the path can feel not safe depending on the person. Not everyone is a man who lives on top of a path stop.

Thanks, so the answer is that your reading comprehension IS that bad, and you can't tell I'm saying take the PATH to JC and then a car service home.

Whoa a cab…from the path station to your home? Now I’ve heard everything.
