>>1248418My nearest stop is pretty good. Literally a 2 minute walk from me with a bus every 10-15 minutes and the buses has a bike carrier for 2 bikes. Takes you westbound and end of line is a shopping mall with a ok food court. (Cinnabon, Dippin Dots, Sbarro, Great Steak & Potato, mall used to have an arcade I'd hang out at when I ditched school back in the day but it closed down a decade ago :E) This stop used to have a bench but hobos kept sleeping on it.
On the other side of the block is the eastbound bus and ends at the lake/beach. Both directions take about an hour to reach end of line from my stop. About 20 minutes west, there's two train stations, one local that connects O'Hare to downtown and a suburban commuter that connects Union Station to Fox Lake.
Transit is good here
