1. Bus stops can be as cheap as a sign on the road. We should embrace cheaper bus stops to build more bus stops. Another benefit of cheap bus stops is under-utilized stops can be removed with less investment lost.
2. There's rooms for lots of scooters on buses. It's pretty common for there to be places for bicycles on buses too. Have you been inside of a city bus? There pretty big.
3. Real estate near train stations is almost always more expensive. This is a type of amenity you have to look into while choosing your home.

It may be cheaper to leave the stop there long-term.
