And the PATH is reliable just fine. It doesn't get "canceled due to a signal problem". I've lived in Jersey City or Hoboken and commuted on the PATH for over ten years, with maybe five instances of any difficulty at all aside from Sandy or blackouts. It's enormously reliable compared to the construction messes that occur on the MTA subways, where entire lines shut down for entire weekends.
And the PATH is only touristy on weekends, there isn't competition between tourists and weekday commuters. Overall, NJ within PATH range is one of the best options to live affordably with a short NYC commute.
