David Byrne: If the 1% stifles New York's creative talent, I'm out of here

Metro North is not 24 hours, but it's only closed for 3 hours between 2:30 am and 5:30 am. And trains from NR run every 15 minutes at rush hour. The Metro North has way fewer sketchy people on average than the Subway. Lots of bankers heading back to Greenwich.

In any case, you're arguing a different point now. Housing prices in many Westchester towns are very reasonable and commutes are too. No reason for rent control to allow low-income people to live in the city proper.

It definitely seems like the MN-lines have the nicer folks. late night LIRR rides are 10x worse than any subway line.
