@rasterman the public transport here is actually really good, so taxis aren't really needed. People only take Uber if they need to go some place specific or don't want to ride with other people (or they're intoxicated). Since I can't drive, I grab Uber to get to work because it's (normally) a lot faster than public transport and I don't have to walk at all to and from stations. It's 4x the price to ride Uber but I like taking 20 minutes to go somewhere instead of an hour, plus however long it takes me to walk. More time to not sleep lol.

In the city though, the train has stops every half mile or so. It's a really good way to get around down there if you don't mind the occasional hobo. But if you're in the city you gotta expect that anyway lol. It runs from like 6am to 12am too so pretty much covers everything. All those routes connect down to other bus stations and such too but if you get out of the city that's when you gotta pay for it.

So why not just move to the city? Well, that's about the only good thing about living there as opposed to the suburbs xD it's way more expensive and you have to put up with more bullshit.
