How is public transportation where you are?

So in the Chicago area, we have three different transit systems. The city of Chicago is served by the CTA, and the suburbs are served by Pace and Metra. The latter two have their issues but they are far better than the CTA. The main problems with the suburban systems is a lack of service or [b]no[/b] service in some areas, and some of Metra's lines have a tendency to be delayed due to the lines actually being owned by freight railroads, whose trains have the obvious right of way over Metra.

The CTA shares the two above issues with our suburban systems, plus one really big problem...[b]crime[/b]. Crime at the CTA train stations has greatly increased over the past few years to ridiculous levels. Sadly, It's almost become a risk to take the train in the city of Chicago. The CTA bus is a little better at this point, but not by much.
