    My commute is 1 hour and 6 minutes one way with no traffic. My husband drives about the same. Only he drives through a tunnel with a toll. We've both made this drive for over 10 years. We love where we live, love where we work!! No plans to move!!

    15 minute on quiet urban streets. Used to be 30-45 minutes on busy highways.

    Also, 1 hour bicycle ride.

    Any more than 30 minutes driving is too far IMO. You're wasting two hours of your day, sitting on your *kitten*, spending money and doing nothing.

    Imagine what you could do in thse two hours of every day.

    5.4 km, or 10 minutes by car through the town at "rush hour".

    About an hour to an hour and a half or more depending on traffic. Coming home is about 45 min to an hour.

    I leave the house just before 7 am and get to work at 8:10 am.... that is after dropping 2 little ones at the sitter's house, then the 5 year old at school, then driving to work...

    I worked from home for 9 years, now I have a 22.5 mile commute, takes about 25 minutes, one traffic light. I love the drive, but hate the "wasted" hour every day.

    1:15 on the way to work. 1:30 on the way home. 38 miles each way.

    With almost 3 hours per day in the car, I get most of my weekday runs in during my lunch hour.

    I'm 20 miles from my office and I work on an island. When I first started working there, my commute was 30 minutes, with traffic. Fast forward six years and it takes over an hour to get to and from work. If there is an accident on any of the bridges, it will take much longer. I love where I live, I love my job, I absolutely detest my commute!! I've considered moving, but I'm priced out of the neighborhoods near my office, and the ones I can afford, have terrible schools.
