PCAC analysis finds a high concentration of people earning less than 200% of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL) live near* 28 of the city’s 40 commuter rail stations. Passing the FARES Act and raising Fair Fares eligibility to 200% of the FPL would drastically improve transit access, equity, and affordability in the Bronx, Queens, Brooklyn, and Upper Manhattan.
