    "Where I’m at you have to take the bus to the station t Coney Island. The waits can be pretty long 10-20min for buses. Luckily there are dollar cabs rolling through regularly. To get to anywhere popular like the city or even Williamsburg takes forever. Definitely don’t recommend living here unless you own a vehicle. Takes about 1.5-2.0 hrs to get to midtown Manhattan using public transportation."
