[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You chose to live far from work.[/quote] I don't live far but even if I lived within 10 minutes of driving distance from my job, I would have to pay for private schools because the local schools are awful. My job is 16-18 miles from my house, depending on the route, but it can take 25-50minutes depending on the day and time of commuting. Public transport is 2 hours and biking is 1.5 hours. The issue in larger, more dense cities is population density and lack of organized public transportation specific to DMV. It's not like I live out in Calvert County, which does require a commute due to distance. I am not the OP but the idea that you can live within 10-15 miles of your job and still have a reasonable commute is laughable. A reasonable commute is 30 minutes by the way, possibly longer if you are talking about any type of commute that doesn't involve constant sitting. Anything more and you are spending an hour plus a day in the car. Even a 45-minute train ride with a walk provides better movement and time spent (reading, music, meditation, podcasts, etc). [/quote]
