I don't have an answer for you but recommend wearing a face mask with a drop or two of essential oil on the outside while you wait for the train if you can't stand ignoring it. Or you could try smearing some Vicks Vapo on the inside.

Not surprised to hear that. I can't imagine making that much and still being priced out of owning a detached home in the area, unless you're a dual income household. At least this area has a ton of appealing options out in the suburbs and rural towns that are priced accordingly.

How far out would you have to commute to live somewhere with single family homes that are under $1.5 million? $170k a year is not close to the generic recommended salary to afford buying in a housing market that expensive. Unless someone's childless or fine raising kid(s) in a condo.

My reaction to any of the ones that have a random passerby interjecting with a mildly offensive witty quip. People here won't intervene when someone's getting aggressively sexually harassed or physically assaulted on the same train as them...they're not going to randomly comment on someone's private convo.
