I don’t have a car, so I would be taking the train! The ride is about 30 minutes.

Nice! I strongly recommend simulating your potential future commute. If you can, do it on a weekday to actually experience commuting load. If not, then just do a weekend trip back and forth, keeping in mind schedule differences between the two

The ride on Amtrak is 30 minutes. On the commuter rail, it’s a little over an hour.

Gotcha. Yeah, I think others have said enough about the train part. It depends on cost/schedule and the suggestion of doing a weekday dry run is probably wise.

I've done the reverse plenty and it's fine enough. Trains sometimes have issues but the commuter rail only sucks when it snows.
