Crazy or Brilliant? Commuting from Las Vegas to San Francisco to Save Rent
- sethammons 11y agoBy their standards, I qualify as a super commuter. I drive 35 minutes to the train and spend 55 minutes on the train (with a three minute walk after that) to get from my house in a secluded mountain town to the OC (Orange County, CA). I think it is around 70 miles one way. Where I live is beautiful, quiet, and similar to where someone from the city might vacation. I'm paid well; even so, I have no notion of how people afford to live down in the OC itself. My mortgage is half to a third of some of my coworkers rent.
