It's pretty good in NYC. I heard it's nice in Boston too.

Compared to rest of US? Maybe. Compared to Europe? Absolutely not.

If they ran the suburban rail more frequently Boston would have a phenomenal system.

The suburban rail in Boston is very much commuter rail. I live about 50 miles west (pretty near a station though I have to drive) and I'll absolutely take it for a 9-5ish urban event. But it's completely useless for anything in the evening.

		NJ Transit is commuter rail and they made it not suck by providing usable evening and weekend service.

Its good in NYC for american standards. For european standards the NYC subway is abominable. The smells, the grime, the homeless, its honestly like visiting the 6th ring of hell. Source: I am a european living in NYC.

		It’s not much different from Paris subway. We should still strive for better - Taipei is a much better model than any European city.
