Reply to comment by nyc98 in Staten Island (or Richmond County) is the most sleep-deprived place in New York State, with 44% of adults reporting inadequate sleep. It also ranks 15th out the most sleep-deprived counties in the U.S. by AngelaLambert

And that's a known limitation of living on SI. People are free to move to better-connected towns in NJ or Eastern Queens if they want a suburban life.

Or maybe they should start electing pro-transit representatives.

At 2.5 billion per mile, SAS perhaps is one of the worst investments in the infrastructure and by far the most expensive subway line in the world. Why would anyone spend so much in a borough that already has like 20 other subway lines is a mystery. It obviously made the lives of some people more convenient but at this cost I doubt that this convenience is worth it. There are so many other transit projects which would make way more difference to people's lives. SAS is a total waste, in my opinion. That money could have been spent in other boroughs of NYC. If everyone hates SI so much, it could have been Queens.
