One of my hobby horses is that most coverage of housing and real estate does not consider the rental market and assumes everyone wants to or can buy a home eventually. Thank you Indy Star for pairing a job that includes the full range of housing and real estate!

That really depends on where you live and how well funded transit is! It should be reliable in every place that has it though I agree

Yep not every city or town needs a whole transit system but many places in the US can support it we just choose not to. (This original post was mostly about how SEPTA in Philly is often discussed.)

My biggest pet peeve about public transit policy is when its only purpose is seen as commuting to work.

A good transit system is there to support all kinds of trips at all times of the day, not only office commutes. Groceries, football games, coffee shop trips, concerts, etc.

“While pandemic shifts in commuting patterns contributed to SEPTA's current financial straits, the reduction in turnpike funding transfers is the real culprit of the fiscal cliff,” according to a housing and transit policy analyst.
