You have to be a masochist to live on Bainbridge and choose to commute to the fucking eastside. You want an expensive island to live on? Mercer comes to mind, and you're already halfway across the lake on I-90.
Does MS's commuter service extend to, like, Ballard, or is it Kirkland to Renton and points slightly east?
Friend lives further than Bainbridge, but works in Seattle. Ask me why I know the ferry commute lol. He got his home for pretty cheap due to the distance.
There are some maps online of the connector routes, and what you said seems to align with them. Based on those maps, seems like lots of focus on Seattle and surrounding communities, with some extension north and south from Redmond.
I was in Bremerton for a time, actually right by the Navy yard, so like, a 10-minute walk to the ferry. So much easier to just leave the car at home and take the bus to my destination.
