That is not how Westchester is. I would love to live in Westchester or Hudson Valley towns. The problem is due to shitty trains, the commutes are far too long.

Look at a town like Beacon NY. Beautiful place with ridiculously cheap real estate.

If we had high speed trains we could link these cities to NYC for daily commuting and it would pay for itself with increased property values.

There's so much value being lost and inconvenience beared by us because of shitty government.

High speed trains only reach high speeds because they don't stop. They're not high acceleration and deceleration trains. MNR has too many stops (and curves, but setting that aside) for high speed to matter.

Of course, you can run them express, but then they probably wouldn't stop in small towns like Beacon or Cold Spring. Amtrak is basically this on the New Haven line, how many people actually take it to commute?

Wow!! Screw trains, as a Hudson Valley native, Hudson valley is not Westchester.

I hope the trains pass you by. We don't want you.

Yep, classic Hudson Valley asshole right here!

Go drive South a couple thousand miles if you want to be an insular hillbilly.
