Yep, ‘work outside the city and have fun inside it’ is my model, and is part of why I’d expect the train ride to be nice. E.g., I could imagine getting a hotel room and spending Saturdays in the city.
One of my co-workers estimated the cost of ‘book a hotel room every Saturday night in Manhattan and thus effectively live there on weekends’ at $1,000 / month.
I’ve been traveling into the city for social reasons and have found good hotels at under $150 / night reliably. You’d want a hotel rather than AirBnB because cleaning fees make AirBnBs bad for one night stays.
Seeing as MIRIans will be working outside the city and having fun inside it (regardless of where they live), they won’t be traveling with the rush.
Ah, good point.
