When your only means of travel is bad, your whole system is bad.
I'm glad that you've found a solution that works for you. I've had the misfortune to be subjected to public transport as a daily necessity, so I'm not as enthusiastic as you are about it.
Also, I work just off of 70, and my wife works in DTC. So there really aren't any good compromises for living that give us both decent commute time.
I understand that the whole vibe in the metro is built for the more hipster-ish living style. I just don't really fit into that, so what fundamentally matters to me is not great, and that colors my perceptions I guess.
