You should do a search, this is a popular subject. Trains not terrible but it's gonna get tiring real fast, especially if you have to pay for parking. Driving will suck, especially if you go all the way into the city. If you do rive, park at Quincy Adams to take the T, but then you'll be dealing with the actual trainwreck the T is right now.

TLDR: Hopefully you don't have to go in 5 days a week or your job is paying you an arm and a leg because the commute will get tiring quick.

And parking in Quincy and taking the train adds more time to the commute as well. Just something to keep in mind. I did it years ago and it was a real drag.

That depends on where you are. There’s a lot of neighborhoods with decently affordable homes (by Boston standards anyway) that are an easy walk / bike ride from the train station. There are also a lot that aren’t, obviously.

Sure, if he's got coin to afford nearby it'll defiantly make life a wee bit easier but even when I was schlepping in all of 2 miles from Hope/Oakhill, it's still an additional pain in the ass in an already long day.
