Which is nice if you have that option. There is no bus serive between where I live (or where I am moving to) and my office. The problem really boils down to the fact that my office is in an expensive new development area in the little town of Snoqualmie WA, and there is one bus stop in the general area that I know of. It takes me 10 minutes to DRIVE to that bus stop from my office.
Add to this that driving less is not an option for me. Other than the miles I will save by living closer to work (I cant afford to live in this neighborhood, but the woman I am paying child support to can) I pick up my son twice a week and take him home twice a week. I put 3000 miles on my car every month and a half to two months.
King country plans for new transit don't even adequately address the needs for Seattle, and can't even begin to address the needs for the outlying communities.
