very surprised Tokyo does not make the list -- nm - Roger More Jun 12, 08:53 6
- I heard Mexico City is inclusive and clean. Rome, on the other hand, was told it is scary as hell with mafia dudes. -- nm - Hotkiss Jun 12, 08:54 5
  - Someone once tried to pickpocket me on the Paris subway. -- nm - Ender Jun 12, 08:59
  - why would transit be scary because of the mafia? - Andie Jun 12, 08:55 1
    - A beefy dude friend was scared pantsless when he rode it one night, said mafia guys regularly harrass, rape, and steal. -- nm - Hotkiss Jun 12, 08:57
  - I was told not to get on the trains in Mexico City. - ty97 Jun 12, 08:55 1
    - I had no problems on Mexico City trains (aside from massive overcrowding on one journey), and rode them regularly -- nm - Roger More Jun 12, 08:56
I did not know 1/3 of all mass transit users in the US are in NY. Also, the DC system ain't that great. -- nm - loosilu Jun 12, 08:51
DC being on the list would have been a joke - MDH Jun 12, 08:49 9
- Do you live in the burbs? - ty97 Jun 12, 08:53 3
  - I work in DC, and spend my time here, and live in suburbs. - MDH Jun 12, 08:55
  - The vast majority of people in the area live outside the city; DC itself is rather small. -- nm - Don Homer Jun 12, 08:55
  - I live in Arlington and I think the metro sucks. -- nm - loosilu Jun 12, 08:54
- wait, how do you pay $9 to get to work and still need parking? -- nm - loosilu Jun 12, 08:51 4
  - $4.50 each way Shady Grove to Farragut North, $4.75 parking - MDH Jun 12, 08:54 1
    - your work doesn't give you vouchers? -- nm - loosilu Jun 12, 08:55
  - uh, to park at the station probably -- nm - Don Homer Jun 12, 08:52 1
    - ah. -- nm - loosilu Jun 12, 08:53
NYC, yeah! -- nm - znufrii Jun 12, 08:48 1

DC being on the list would have been questionable. It's far from great. -- nm - Don Homer Jun 12, 08:47
