Getting around in New York City, NY

There are many options, when it comes to getting around in New York City.

 

The mass transit in New York City is known as the most complex and extensive in North America. The public transit is the most popular mode of transportation in the city, more than 50% of its residents commuting to work, using mass transit.

 

The city's subway is the largest rapid transit system in the world, with more than 460 stations in operation, nearly all the system remaining open 24 hours a day, unlike in other cities, where the system shuts down over night. However, New York's subway is not considered safe, during night hours, visitors being advised to take a cab, for nightly trips.

 

There are also many different bus lines running throughout New York City, identified by letters followed by numbers, the letters indicating the borough in which the line mostly operates (M-Manhattan, Bx-Bronx, B-Brooklyn, Q-Queens, S-Staten Island).

 

Besides public transit, one can also drive, walk or ride the bike to get around in the city of New York, depending on the distance.
