    "very horrible transportation, I feel really sorry for those who don't have cars. it's a bad , unorganized, and corrupt place to live or visit. only the other part of Merrillville is catered to and kept nice. The part that is closest to Gary NEEDS help with their unreliable transportation! Called bus company 10x with voicemail no one EVER returned my call...Sad.(sums it up)"
