In the Bay Area many people have 1+ hour commutes. Even 2 hours is not uncommon.
- dijit 7y agoNot to be flippant but the larger suffering of others does not negate or even justify suffering.
- rootusrootus 7y agoThat sounds like a choice. 25 minutes is the national average.
- ghaff 7y agoWell, the choice is living in the Bay Area. I don't think many would find it surprising that an area with among the worst traffic and highest housing prices might have longer commutes than the national average.
- closeparen 7y ago25 minutes is achievable in the Bay Area within SF (transit/biking), or within the suburb where you work (driving), it is just not feasible when living in the suburbs and working in the city, or vice versa. The East Bay commuters in my office make as much as I do and could live in SF if they wanted. They made a choice to be homeowners, have more space, get access to better schools, etc. but it is still a choice.
