Lots of people here complaining about the traffic, but is there any major metro in the US where people don't complain about the rush-hour traffic? Off the top of my head, the people that I know in/from Boston, NYC, DC, Atlanta, Miami, Chicago, Nashville, Dallas, Austin, Houston, Denver, Seattle, Portland, SF, and LA all complain about rush-hour traffic, and many will insist that their city is "the worst" on some specific dimension.
My impression is that if you're living in a desirable metro area, your drive to work will be on congested roads, and there's no real way to avoid this. Your choice of location within a metro area (e.g. living close to work, on the same side of the city as your office) matters more than your choice between different metros. Some metro areas make these choices more desirable/affordable than others.
