    I could live and work here without a car? I've heard people say the public transportation sucks, but they never explain. (I don't drive for personal reasons, so I have a higher tolerance for the normal bus riding annoyances.) I'm moving to Houston when I get my BA in HR Management.

      Houston is a car oriented city and in most cases you would need a car but it all depends on where you live. Houston is not a very public transportation friendly city like Washington DC, Boston or NYC.

      NYC, DC, and Boston, despite what you claim, all have horrendous systems. Metro in Houston has a very well designed and thought out system, much like Philadelphia's which, is by far, the best in the country. NYC and BOS's are gov't deadbeats and using subpar, junk equipment, often from China, exempt from Federal safety regs, thanks to crooks like Chuck Schumer. Boston is not even a city. It's a small town. Philadelphia's system covers the entire region, not just the city. So if you want a truly livable city that has an excellent transit system, definitely go with Philadelphia. That is, unless you value deadbeats which never pay their bills, and procure shoddy equipment, such as NY and Bos do, and have for years.
      SEPTA by far, has the best maintenance and very little debt. It's truly a fantastic system, beautifully engineered with every mode offered, and they do charity work for NYC and Bos and DC, bc you will see other agency vehicles at SEPTA in the summer, being overhauled. They're just an amazing powerhouse.
      Regarding Houston, their system is very well designed.

      Thanks for your kind reply. I had been googling for help on the Washington DC metro and this video popped up without a label. I watched quite a bit of it without seeing any city named so I guess I was getting little freaked out. and idiotic.

    This video is dated, I bet fare is more expensive. I live in another state anyway.

    • @METROHouston
      @METROHouston  6 ปีที่แล้ว +19

      Nope. Local bus fare is $1.25 and good for three hours. An all-day pass which gives you unlimited rides is only $3. Students and seniors ride 50% off!
