2. More generally, which suburbs do mid and senior level bankers most often settle into and how are their commutes into Manhattan?

Rye is a nice spot it’s about 40 minutes by train to GCT. Nice neighborhood, good downtown, coveleigh beach club is beautiful. Really anywhere in westchester county is extremely common for white collar commuters.
It’s a reasonable commute on metro north for sure. I have colleagues in: Bronxville, Scarsdale, Rye, Pelham, Greenwich, and Darien.
I chose the NJ side (towns like Chatham, Summit, Short Hills) and love it, but my commute is worse.

Where are you going to? We're GS adjacent, and everybody lives in Jersey and takes the PATH.
In Midtown near Madison and 54th, so 15-ish min walk to and from GC.
Also depends how many days in the office you are
