isnt there a park n ride option?

also looking at all the responses, is it reasonable to assume that the commute time will be on an average 1hr20 mins to 1hr40min one way door to door?

not really many. And the ones that exist have long waits. You can live close to North Ave/Midway and walk to the bus. Not as expensive as a house where you can walk to the train.

From the SP/Westfield Border, you can get to port authority in 50 minutes early in the morning. Add 10-15 for later in the morning

Raritan Valley Line takes too long during rush hour, it doesn't run as frequent so I normally see people simply drive and park around Newark.
