The commuter rail is quicker than the subway, but the subway is far more convenient, arriving every 5 minutes. The commuter rail has gaps of up to an hour during peak times and 2-3 hours at off-peak times. If you miss a commuter rail train, it is a big pain. I missed my train on Friday afternoon, and it ended up taking 2 hours to get home. You don't have to time your day to the trains if you ride the subway.
If you want a house in a safe residential neighborhood, though, you're stuck with commuter rail. Some lines run more frequently than others, so research the schedules.
