"The longest average travel times were associated with various forms of public transportation. For example, workers who traveled to work by bus had an average commute of 46.6 minutes."
From the zippia.com link:
"Public transportation in the U.S. takes up to 85% longer than commuting by car."
"Subways have the longest average commute times in the U.S. at 47 minutes."
These are US-centric stats.
My experience in Europe is that they are not bad numbers and still show than it's easy to commute for 1 hour door to door by public transport. For instance it's common to commute by train in which case you need to add the time to get to the train station and back plus the time you spend at the station.
