"I've made it a point the last couple times I've moved to make sure I have good access to transit options."
I take your points (time behind a wheel wasted, etc) - but is what I quoted you on such a revelation?
I like in the UK ("London, England") and don't drive. I have never moved somewhere without looking at 'good access to (public transport) options"
Is it really so rare in the US for people to consider how they'd get to work, or play, or their friends, by public transport that you consider it noting that recently you have been doing so?
When I've been to LA or NYC there have always been good, all night, cheap public transport options available. Is this not the case outside the E/W coasts?
