I don't think that someone with kids needs to live any closer to the Drop-In Center, Mustard Seed or crack cul-de-sac (to name a few choice locations) because the city can't appropriately plan their transit funding.

How about closer to Lion's Park or Sunnyside? There's a lot of area between the burbs and right downtown... many such places also have either a) a train stop conveniently located within walking distance or b) better bus service.
