This. When I lived in Phoenix, my wife worked 30 miles south of downtown. I worked 20 miles north of downtown. Fortunately, we both loved the older neighborhoods downtown and schools weren't a factor at that time in our lives. If they had been, we would have lived 5 miles from her job and I would have had a two hour commute each way or needed to find another job closer to home.
