[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My work pays for parking, so I drive from Fairfax City to my office near McPherson Square. In the morning, I leave at about 6:55, take 50 East, and generally am at my desk by 7:30. The drive home is not so great; depending on the day, it can take 45 minutes to an hour, and I have to cut over to 29 or 236 at Falls Church to avoid the bottleneck where 495 and 50 intersect. I used to take Metro from Vienna, and it was about 50 minutes door to door when it worked reliably. Unfortunately, the reliability declined, and parking is almost $5 per day. Even with my work subsidizing Metro itself (but not parking), driving is less expensive. Hope this helps. We really love living in Fairfax City. Many days I do wish the commute were shorter, but we think it is worth this tradeoff.[/quote] What about your commute on the way home? That's when it gets tough, I think. [/quote]
