São Paulo still has a long way to expand its subway and railway systems (only 350 km for a 22 million metropolis), but its Downtown area is served by four subway and five railway lines, plus counting with several massive bus terminus.
Even though employment centres migrated southwest as Downtown decayed, it keeps being an important job market on its own and easy to get from anywhere in the metro area.
