[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, try not to get caught up in this notion of having to live close in. The fact is that people who live as far out as Rockville are happy with their commutes. Instead of committing financial suicide, look at more reasonably priced houses further out. BTW, we have a HHI of 445 K and we are NOT looking at anything over 950,000.[/quote] I totally DISAGREE. There are exceptions, of course, but study after study shows that a longer commute decreases quality of life. People also underestimate how much time they spend commuting in an effort to convince themselves that it really isn't so bad. However, if you add up a "mere" extra 20 minutes of commuting per day (10 minutes one way, and 10 back), 5 days/week, that's over 80 HOURS of commuting annually. Can you imagine what you would do with basically two entire work weeks? I'd rather spend that time with my family than in a car.[/quote]
