> $100 to commute a week isn't to high? So move to the city and enjoy a shorter (and cheaper) commute. Of course, since you're currently living 50 miles outside the city, the increase in rent would be much more than $100, so you're still enjoying the cheaper end of the bargain. > Now Chicago, Atlanta and LA have bad traffic it doesn't cost you a hundred bucks to commute for a week. With parking, you could easily pay that much in other U.S. cities. In addition, they all have pretty terrible options for public transit compared to New York, so I'm not really keen on using them as a reference point.
