By train and bus, it's about an hour. By car, anywhere from 25-120 minutes, dependent on traffic, weather and star alignment. We live in Chicago. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-is-your-commute-5/page/2#post-1092962 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 14:46:35 +0000 JennyLayneAZ 1092962@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I work about 45 miles away (so 90 miles round trip) and it can take me anywhere from 35 minutes (on a really good day) to an hour. The afternoon traffic is usually worse than the morning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-is-your-commute-5/page/2#post-1092948 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 14:41:54 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 1092948@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I work from home, but travel around for work within a 40km radius. Most days thought I'm about 2km from most clients, so the commute is nothing. Fridays I go to the office and it's 75km one way, takes about an hour. I live in a small town and take a lot of country roads to get there, no such thing as traffic here unless you get stuck being a tractor! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-is-your-commute-5/page/2#post-1092938 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 14:38:41 +0000 Ash 1092938@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>70 minutes (all highway driving... never worry about traffic) and it is exhausting! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-is-your-commute-5#post-1092884 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 14:15:12 +0000 Mrs.Ham 1092884@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>20-25 minutes each way. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-is-your-commute-5#post-1092883 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 14:14:36 +0000 Mommytotwois 1092883@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Distance is 29 miles...Time is anywhere from 45 minutes to 90 minutes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-is-your-commute-5#post-1092839 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 13:57:53 +0000 MrsKoala 1092839@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>15 minutes!!

In the morning it takes me a little longer, 45 minutes to 1 hour, (Leaving 10 minutes earlier or later can make a big difference). In the evening it usually takes me 45 minutes except on Friday nights when it takes me an hour. I live in an area that is popular for tourists so, Friday night traffic is an issue. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-is-your-commute-5#post-1092736 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 13:21:03 +0000 mrskc 1092736@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>30 miles. Mornings take about 40 minutes. And way home can be 40-50 minutes depending on traffic. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-is-your-commute-5#post-1092730 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 13:20:09 +0000 Turd Ferguson 1092730@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh, too long. With no traffic/weather/construction, I can make it in a little under 30 minutes to/from. Recently with aaalll of the road construction and awful traffic, it's been taking me about an hour each way. I despise it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-is-your-commute-5#post-1092722 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 13:18:11 +0000 CakeLady 1092722@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>35-40 minutes door to desk, on public transit. I love it, time to read and decompress and DH and I ride together in the morning :happy: </p> <p>I used to have a horrible car commute 20 miles, 1-2 hours in terrible traffic before I switched jobs. The change in commute has had a major positive impact on my quality of life overall. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-is-your-commute-5#post-1092712 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 13:13:44 +0000 2PeasinaPod 1092712@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I go into the office, it can be anywhere between an hour and 15 to an hour and 45 depending on if I have to drop off DS that morning or not. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-is-your-commute-5#post-1092706 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 13:11:13 +0000 Shutterbug 1092706@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>24 miles each way, takes about an hour on average, give or take 20 minutes for traffic fluctuations. For one year of my adult life I had a 10 minute commute and it was sooo glorious. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-is-your-commute-5#post-1092616 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 12:49:43 +0000 Periwinkle 1092616@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Now it's about 35 minutes each way, mostly back roads. Before we moved, however, I was commuting at least 1.5 hours each way. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-is-your-commute-5#post-1092586 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 12:40:14 +0000 LovelyPlum 1092586@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>45 minutes on public transportation (subway, then bus) or 30 minutes driving. But most days, I don't have a car. The upside is that I don't have to be the one driving through traffic! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-is-your-commute-5#post-1092572 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 12:36:26 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1092572@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Directly from house to work is about 10-15 minutes, but I do daycare drop-offs in the morning and our daycare is the opposite direction of where I work... so it takes me 15 min to go to daycare, then 30 min to go from daycare to work, so my commute ends up being 45 min! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-is-your-commute-5#post-1092542 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 12:30:14 +0000 Mrs. J 1092542@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>About 30 minutes in normal traffic.
