[quote=Anonymous]So I actually live in DC (16th ST Heights) and commute to Newark on a regular basis.  I would strongly suggest a neighborhood near the beltway (and the 95 exchange) to minimize commute.  Traffic wise it takes me an hour and 40 minutes each way (unless I stop at Wegmans on Exit 77).  It is a long drive, but I make it work.  Podcasts, Amazon music, audiobooks do wonders.

A PP mentioned beach traffic and there is literally none on this commute.  That's typically on Rt 1 and you'll never cross it unless you've gotten really lost.

You can get snarled up in other situations (accidents, etc) but generally you are going opposite traffic (people typically head towards DC in the AM and away from DC in the PM, opposite you so they're the ones backed up).

Other options include moving to Wilmington and you commuting on Amtrak (tickets aren't terrible if you buy in advance), or look at MARC options near Aberdeen.  It's maybe a 15-20 minute drive from there.  MARC is cheaper but longer route.

Is he working for the University?  A corporation?  Any work from home options?  (even for 2 days a week).
