In the inner city, you learn quickly just how noisy a shopping cart full of bottles can be rolling through an alley at 4am. And there are sirens. And there are drunks hooting and hollering. Noisy is not good, though I suppose you get used to it. But still, it's not good.
That noisy trade-off though does give you an extra hour+ a day not going to work. That makes a big difference. And I know I know, it's not that bad. It's only 20 minutes from Prestwick! Sure it is. And I can't hear my neighbours doing the dishes.

It depends on when you have to work and things like that. I like mine because it gives me some separation from work and home. I also don't have to drive in rush hour every single day, or get crammed onto the train to make it downtown....so there's my bias.
