Consejos para la ciudad

Formas de ahorrar

Use the train!

The train is a reliable, comfortable, and cheap way to get to Downtown for ~$7 per day. It's safe and way less noisy than the old carriages in Boston, New York, or Chicago. You won't have to pay for gas or parking also. Just check the schedule.
