I love taking transit in other cities and see how it compares to home.
Mexico City has of course lots of coverage: 195 stations and 12 lines. It cost 5 pesos (0.40 CAD).
It’s often faster to an equivalent car ride when comparing with Google maps.
It feels safe as a foreigner (totally subjective) and they have reserved female trains as well.

"Herman, who died Dec. 31, became very involved in the Niagara Workers Welcome services and other outreach programs. He considered the farmworkers his friends and neighbours, and treated them as such."
