I've been living in Orinda/Moraga for 4 years now and make the daily commute to the city. It's 25 minutes by BART, and another 15 or so combined on both ends to make the connection. Having the city and office so close, yet basically living in the boonies (with the cows and turkeys) rocks.
- neilk 15y agoI have done the math on this. For a SOMA commute during peak hours, living near the BART station in Orinda is more convenient than most of San Francisco. http://brevity.org/pic/misc/downtown-transit-eastbay.png http://brevity.org/pic/misc/downtown-transit-eastbay.png (Explanation of method here: http://brevity.org/code/google/transitheatmap.html http://brevity.org/code/google/transitheatmap.html)

- usaar333 15y agoReally cool calculation. This is to get to Embarcadero Bart I assume? One thing about SF public transit I've learned: Aside from BART, it is slow. If you live within 4 miles of your destination, biking most likely is faster. (Case in point: I live in a 35-50 min grid. By bike I'd get to the Embarcadero BART in under 25 minutes.
