Working in the City?

Im beginning to think it would be worth it for me to work in the city (salary wise) however I'm concerned about what time I would get home every night (I live in Bethpage).

For those that work FT in the city and live in the bethpage area approx what time do you get home?

i THINK it's about a 40 minute commute (penn to bethpage, not including subway time). i don't live in bethpage, but would pass it on my way home when i commuted.

Re: Working in the City?

you should look at the subway schedule and parking situation. I live near that area and if i catch an express its about 50 min or so. FM me if you want more specifics.

I live in Bethpage and commute every day.

I get in at 8 and home between 7:30-8:00 everyday.

I take a 7:01 in and usually a 6:21 or 6:53 home.

My total commute door to door is about 2.5 hrs a day with subway. I work in midtown.

I make a ton more money working in the city and couldn't survive working in LI.

Re: Working in the City?

DH works in the city and we are in Farmingdale. He takes a train at 630ish am and then subway downtown and coming home he either takes a 520ish train and gets in at 615ish or he takes the 621 and get in a 710. So Bethpage would just be one stop earlier.

the train is about 45 mins so it would really depend on where in the city the job was.
