I know a lot of people drive farther than I do (and I hate it!) so I thought I'd see how long our commutes are!
-
About 15 mins to my parking lot, then a 5 min walk to the office. Avgs about 20 mins total. Commutes in our city are really short though; DH drives from the very south of our city to the very north, and it only takes in 30 mins!
-
9-12 mins depending on traffic
I can't complain.
-
I usually work from home but my commute to the office is over 2.5 hours to 3.5 hours roundtrip. It only takes 1 hour in the morning but the afternoon drive is a mess. I did it FT when I was pregnant with LO 1 and it was awful.
-
Could we have multiple options? Mine changes based on the time of day.
Morning: 10 minutes to daycare, 15-30 minutes to office depending on traffic.
Afternoon: 20-30 minutes to daycare (depending on traffic), 20-30 minutes home (again, dependent on traffic).
-
@Bookish: I want to move to your city!
-
About 35 minutes! And then another 5 minutes to get to my desk.
-
@avivoca: Haha! Well, the tradeoff is that we have no arts or entertainment to speak of!
It is nice being able to get anywhere in 30 mins though!
-
My commute to school is between 25-30 minutes.
-
I walk - it takes me about 30-35 minutes (just under 2 miles each way).
When we move out to the suburbs, my commute will be about 45 minutes of driving.
-
We have two offices, so it's either 20 minutes or 10 minutes, door to door. I used to commute two hours one way to Brooklyn for work (I live in NJ), so it has made me appreciate my current commute so much more!
-
15minute walk.
-
About 7 minutes. I am very lucky, my work is about 3 miles from my home.
-
45 minute drive when I'm working in the office, 15-20 minute easy drive (rural) when I'm working in the hospital.
-
20 mins. It used to be 50-60 mins so I can't complain, I'd really like to move to town and walk but my DH isn't having it.
-
20 min drive, shorter/longer depending on traffic/lights, etc.
-
About 10 minutes!
-
Mine depends on DC traffic!! It's about 30 miles but can take anywhere from 40 mins-1.5 hours depending. I work an early schedule 7 am- 330 pm so I avoid the heaviest traffic and my commute is usually right around 45 mins to an hour
-
30-40 mins
-
Depending on traffic, it's anywhere between 1:15 to 1:45. Coming home is worse than going, but I have a drive to the train, and then a train ride into the city, then a few minute walk to the office. Door to desk is about an hour and a half.
-
10-20 but with daycare drop off it's usually 30.
-
Can you enable multiple voting options? I commute to two differnt locations.
-
0, WAH
-
Less than 10 minutes, walking. Love!
-
@avivoca: @looch: added multiple options!
Some of you really are lucky!!!!
-
5-10 minutes, depending on what lights I hit. Super quick!
-
Three days a week, we drive about 12 miles on highway roads, around 6:45 am. We're in the office by 7. On the way home, it can be up to 45 minutes, depending on traffic.
Two days a week, I do a super commute. Without being too specific, I take 3 forms of public transportation, if all the connections are timed well, it takes a little less than 1.5 hours. If I happen to miss a connection, it can take up to 2 hours.
-
@looch: wow. That IS a 'super' commute...:/
-
The distance to my office is only 15 miles. But I'm stuck in traffic both ways. It's almost always at least 45 minutes.
-
@babyjmama: it's insane is that it is, but it's short term and I use the time to catch up on reading. I couldn't do it 5 days a week, so the compromise worked out really well.
-
1 hour.
But I don't drive. I take transit. Which is usually faster than driving...
-
24 minutes. It used to be 45+, but our work moved closer.
-
45-50 minutes 3 days a week. The other two days I work from home. It's a nice balance, and my drive into the office is beautiful!
-
I drive from one end of town to the other but it's a small town and only takes about 10 minutes. I used to have a 30 second commute when I lived across the street from where I work.
-
20 min car ride to the ferry, 20 minute ferry ride to work, 10 minute walk to work. On the way back home, it's a 10 minute walk home, 35 minute ferry ride (its not express like in the morning), 20 minute car ride home. So it's 15 minutes longer on the way home.
-
I selected 10-20min but often it is quicker than that. I'm lucky...
-
7-11 minutes depending on traffic. MAJOR part of why I will continue to work in this job!
-
It's about 20 min. I leave 30 min early to do drop off, plus it's a long walk into my building
-
Mine is 10 to 15 minutes. After years of 30 min + train and subway rides to work, I really appreciate a ten-minute drive
-
Well I'm on maternity leave and may never return to that job, but on a normal traffic day, my commute is 1.5 hrs. On a bad traffic day, could go up to 3 hrs. BIG reason that I may never return.
I can't complain.
It is nice being able to get anywhere in 30 mins though!
